"When you download the 'hot' version from the Archive, you see the fear in the politician's eyes. That’s not an actor. That’s a real man realizing he shook hands with a fictional Kazakhstani reporter. You can’t fake that. Amazon Prime blurs the fear. The Archive preserves it."

At first glance, it seems like a contradiction. Borat Sagdiyev—the fictional, mustachioed journalist from Kazakhstan played by Sacha Baron Cohen—is remembered for the "very nice" catchphrase, the mankini, and the chaos he caused in the 2006 film. But "Hot"? And why the Internet Archive, a non-profit digital library usually reserved for obscure books and Wayback Machine snapshots?
