As recent posts are discussing, the United States government discontinued hosting many datasets recently. I am trying to develop a Wikipedia article on this topic. I need to know who has said anything about this and what datasets are removed, and who might be privately providing archival copies. An unusual aspect of this is that the government did not issue documentation of all these changes.

Critically: I need to cite reliable sources for every claim in Wikipedia. Some of the reports of this are likely published in fringe professional newsletters. If anyone is aware of media coverage from reliable sources, could you please share? I can do general news search, but I cannot know where the field-specific update reports would be posted without someone telling me.

If anyone can post reports here, then I can sort that in a Wikipedia article covering the topic. Thanks.
