This is actually funnier then the title leads you to believe.
I'd archive BBC though, fuck those assholes.
It took three days to pump millions of litres of water out of the dam, after Rajesh Vishwas dropped the device while taking a selfie.
By the time it was found, the phone was too water-logged to work.
Mr Vishwas claimed it contained sensitive government data and needed retrieving, but he has been accused of misusing his position.
The food inspector dropped his Samsung phone, worth about $1,200 (100,000 rupees), into Kherkatta Dam, in the central Indian state of Chhattisgarh, on Sunday.
After local divers failed to find it, he paid for a diesel pump to be brought in, Mr Vishwas said in a video statement quoted in Indian media.
He said he had verbal permission from an official to drain "some water into a nearby canal", adding that the official said it "would in fact benefit the farmers who would have more water".
Mr Vishwas has denied misusing his position, and said that the water he drained was from the overflow section of the dam and "not in usable condition".
One of the main reasons why I don´t archive links is because I like the source URL to be visible. Another reason is that I don´t find it such a big deal directly visiting the BBC, CNN, etc.

His excuses and reasoning are hilarious.

It removes an attack surface. A redirect or archive site could be pointing anywhere.
And if it is a well known website seeing the URL you also get an idea of their editorial politics.
