The ocean of shitty websites is rising (much more aggressively than the real oceans). To help in the de-shitification, this bookmarklet is quite useful:

javascript:void window.open("https://web.archivep75mbjunhxc6x4j5mwjmomyxb573v42baldlqu56ruil2oiad.onion/web/"+encodeURIComponent(location.href));

You simply create a bookmark on your bookmarks bar and paste that text in, in place of the URL. If you are visiting a website that gives you problems, simply clicking that bookmarklet will prefix the Internet Archive Wayback Machine in front of the current URL. It’s a notable time-saver, as opposed to copy-paste that text every time.

There is a flaw: if the target website simply drops packets (i.e. it’s a tor-hostile site), then the URL is malformed. It attempts to visit archive.org/…/about: Or more often, it just does nothing.

Any JS folks know how to fix that so it works on sites that time out?

(edit) bonus points--

Some shitty sites (Siteground?) redirect to:

https://$original_host/.well-known/captcha/?y=ipr:$IPaddy:$random_real_number&r=$original_path

So it would help if the bookmarklet would strip out the garbage that was added before visiting archive.org.

faxzero.com has been indispensible because (AFAIK) it is the only way to send a gratis fax to US numbers. Today it quit working. UMatrix now shows there are ~120+ different JavaScript pushers.

In the past I worked hard doing a lot of trial-and-error to work out which JS needs to be enabled to function. The magic combination I had was working fine for years, but now the “send free fax now” button is broken. It animates when hovered but clicking does nothing.

I tried enabling all JavaScript, cookies, etc for the pink-colored entities (minus GAFAM and yahoo). It was not enough. Can any JavaScript experts see what makes that submit button function?
