A crawler is only vulnerable to the input that it tries to parse or execute. Wayback Machine may archive windows executables, but it's certainly just treating them as binary bytes if so, and wouldn't even know how to execute them.

So I'd expect Wayback Machine to be immune to downloads to weird executables.

^(The user who downloads and runs the archived file on the other hand...)

Some search engines do execute JavaScript. In particular both Bing and Google have "engines" based on Chromium.

For Bing:

For Google:

> Googlebot now runs the latest Chromium rendering engine

I think I got that tricky character right, though kangyoten isn't in any of the dictionaries I checked, despite having web results, so your mileage may vary.

Also possibly inspired by Nakamura Kangyoen: https://nakamurakangyoen.com/ ? Hard to say when I can hardly read Japanese.

A photo of an elephant carrying a lion cub may seem obviously doctored to you or me, but I'm not sure it would have been obvious to 10 year old me.

Or if there was an obviously false story involving football rules instead of animal behavior, I'd probably have no idea.

I suspect that even "obvious" fact checks can help with building up a good intuition for truthiness.

90's snopes was awesome. Before the divorce, redesign, ads / sponsored content, and plagiarism. Just good old fashioned web design with a lot of interesting urban legends.
