I've used kiwix quite a bit in the past while deploying computer labs running https://internet-in-a-box.org in Myanmar. Interesting projects.

I'm slowly questioning distributing Wikipedia though. It seems to be getting more and more biased.

We started helping clients with data backup and recovery some time ago, and Kiwix was one of the first tools.

Offline backups are a crucial component of data security and disaster recovery. These backups, stored on physical media like external hard drives or offline servers, provide a lifeline when digital data is compromised. They safeguard against data loss due to cyberattacks, hardware failures, or accidental deletions.

Offline backups are immune to online threats, such as ransomware, which can encrypt or destroy online data. They offer peace of mind and ensure that critical information and memories are preserved. Additionally, they can be a legal requirement for businesses in certain industries.

In a digital world prone to vulnerabilities, offline backups are a dependable insurance policy, preserving the irreplaceable and invaluable.

You can also have this on a phone, provided there is enough storage space. A lightweight version of Wikipedia comes with no photos.
