The Wayback Machine will now only be able to scrape data from Reddit's homepage, according to The Verge, while access to user profiles, comments, and post detail pages will be blocked.

The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine is the latest victim of Reddit's crackdown on data access. The company has begun to place new restrictions on what the archive site will be able to access in a move that will significantly limit the Wayback Machine's ability to preserve information from Reddit.

The social media platform claims it's to protect users' privacy, but money appears to be the more motivating factor.
