How is the nas different from an rpi? Presumably they'd both run Linux or Docker.. Whatever software you decide to run should function in generally similar ways.

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I have a small apache case from harbor freight with a LePotato, mini router and a battery in it. I intended it to mainly be a road trip jellyfin/emby server (still deciding on which to fully implement) but I also have kiwix, Audiobookshelf and a simple nginx webpage to make getting to the services easier.
What is 'internet-in-a-box'?
Like nextcloud, or owncloud? Those get setup on a nas all the time. Take a look at truenas.
I don't know for sure, but I think they generally refer to archives of specific websites that would be good to keep in case of an apocalypse. The thing that comes is the Wikipedia archive that is, at minimum, text-only. Not sure which other website archives people like to keep in case the Internet apocalypse.

How to say archiving Pornhub with saying archiving Pornhub.
Each site you want will different. Wikipedia is ...a wiki site. But, YouTube is a video site. Reddit is a message board. There are blog type sites. There are download sites, Google docs is highly interactive. All just different, a few may be the same-ish. And then, you can't really fit the Internet on a box in your house. And the cost to host it elsewhere will be astronomical. Sounds like you have a few in mind? Find out what software they run, run it locally, and then download the site you can ant to mirror. You should be able to locate a crawler that will build the database(a) locally. Definitely legwork for a whole site/set of sites. Much easier if it's a type of media: books, video, audio, PDFs, a database.
I'm not sure what OP is trying to create, but most Internet-in-a-box projects I've heard are trying to recreate text-centric sites offline (Reddit for example). I doubt they are trying to create an offline version of video sites, like YouTube. The size requirements alone make it unlikely.
Same question.

I've put together several using those instructions. Last one was on used HP EliteDesk 800 G3 with an external 4TB drive and SSD. I do the IIAB install first then add other Debian packages later depending on what I want to provide. I usually go for the "big" install option...
