I really appreciate you spelling out the dead vs blocked thing - that's the kind of nuance people usually gloss over. The 72k domains that came back to life through chrome fingerprinting is solid proof it works, but if we're only reviving like 0.7% of the web, that's cool and all but probably won't move the needle much for most crawlers doing this at scale. What's actually wild is that huge gap between .cn domains 33% dead and .de 7.6% -- like, why is there such a massive difference? The post doesn't really dig into whether that's regulatory stuff, DNS getting nuked, hosting companies cycling through domains, or if you're just pinging from a US datacenter which could skew things. And here's something worth thinking about: should governments and universities - where you're seeing 26% and 22% dead rates respectively - handle preservation differently than random .com sites, or does dead mean the same thing no matter what the domain ends with?
