Earthlink killed part of my old radios sites

As a note, some of WA2ISE web pages died, as Earthlink didn't want to provide me with free web space anymore. :dammit::dammit::dammit::dammit:
http://www.wa2ise.com/netcom/netcomhomepage.htm is where I moved most of the stuff that was on Earthlink's servers. Had to use the Wayback Machine to obtain almost all these files. I should've backed them up, but I didn't expect Earthlink to shaft me... :thumbsdn::thumbsdn::thumbsdn:

Over free web space? Highly unlikely, considering the TOS likely stated they reserve the right to pull them at anytime.

There SHOULD be some kind of warning to allow users to back up data in any intentional pull of hosting...

As a Windstream business customer, this is no surprise to me.

Did you know they're going through Chapter 11 right now?

Got a call from them. "Sorry, your data files got corrupted"... Tough bananas...

Have you heard of the internet archive? They might have some of the lost data:
