Companies had copystriked all the arts and knowledge to hoard it into their now dead servers to get profit from subscription services only, so the only peak at humanity now are blogs, memes, and random posts.

Well after so long there’s nothing left of the fragile silicon storage mediums, so as far as we can tell civilization basically ended in the late 90s as everyone moved to the mysterious “.com” which we assume to be a euphemism for death.
Hmm, wouldn’t that go for a lot of the digital mediums of the 90’s, too? Magnetic drives and tapes were the big deal back then just as now.
And also we have print magazines and books which absolutely talk about the Internet. And tape storage, etc.
Do tapes last longer than (unused) hard drives? I figured it’s the same medium in a different shape.
Paper can rot away too, although it varies in stability and it can sometimes be read anyway (like with the Herculaneum scrolls) because it’s so low-density it acts as a form or redundancy. Optical disks will last a long time, and you can get archival ones that should still be like new after millennia.
Tape storage lasts almost indefinitely if stored properly.
