Failed archiving attempt
After ArchiveTeam started the project (2016-07-04), dnshistory.org staff shortly activated CloudFlare in order to block our access to the site.
user:bzc6p contacted them asking for cooperation, but they replied that "there is no way you can archive the >billion pages on the site and trying to do so is causing issues for other users on the site."
Since then CloudFlare seems to have been deactivated. As of 2016-08-17, the site is still up, with various queries, including search, still functioning.
