Here’s their mission statement, “Purpose: The Memory Hole exists to preserve and spread material that is in danger of being lost, is hard to find, or is not widely known. This includes:• Government files
• Corporate memos
• Court documents (incl. lawsuits and transcripts)
• Police reports and eyewitness statements
• Congressional testimony
• Reports (governmental and non-governmental)
• Maps, patents, Web pages
• Photographs, video, and sound recordings
• News articles
• Books (and portions of books)

The emphasis is on material that exposes things that we’re not supposed to know (or that we’re supposed to forget).” Has some very interesting stuff. Example titles, “OSHA’s Lost Workday Injury and Illness Database Injury/ illness rates for tens of thousands of companies identified by name. The Occupational Safety & Health Administration fought in court for two years to keep this material secret.” “All Available NY Fire Dept Dispatch Tapes From 9/11 The Fire Department of New York’s radio dispatches from the morning and early afternoon of 9/11. For over three years, they fought in court to keep these recordings secret but were finally forced to release them in August 2005. For the first time anywhere, we’ve made the contents of all 21 audio CDs available online.” “”Emissions From Reactions in Nuclear Weapons” What happens when nukes explode. From the Defense Atomic Support Agency. Originally classified “Secret,” now almost unredacted. There’s lots more!”
