“LiveLeak, a popular British video sharing website known for footage of war, politics, and many other world events usually censored on other video websites, like YouTube, abruptly shuts down today after 15 years online.”
LiveLeak hosted the footage every other platform pulled. Now the domain redirects to a new site with a cheerful welcome banner. The founder says it “achieved all that it could.” Fifteen years of war footage and primary source video just went dark with no archive mentioned.
