What is Wayback Machine?
The Internet Archive's service that stores historical snapshots of websites, used to see how a page looked before it changed or vanished.
The Wayback Machine, run by the non-profit Internet Archive, has captured snapshots of public web pages since 1996. Anyone can browse how a URL looked on a given date.
Analysts use it to recover deleted pages, see old contact details or staff lists, compare a phishing site with the real one and prove what a page said at a particular time. Not every page is captured, and some site owners exclude their content.
