Pew Research Center: When Online Content Disappears


A quarter of all webpages that existed at one point between 2013 and 2023 are no longer accessible, as of October 2023. In most cases, this is because an individual page was deleted or removed on an otherwise functional website.

For older content, this trend is even starker. Some 38% of webpages that existed in 2013 are not available today, compared with 8% of pages that existed in 2023. . . .

Nearly one-in-five tweets are no longer publicly visible on the site just months after being posted.
