This statement makes me think you're misunderstanding the person above you.
They're saying this blog author, gyrovague, is doxing¹ Archive.is. I am wondering if you are misreading that as DoSing. To "dox" is to reveal the identity of, typically for purposes of harassment. To "DoS" is to spam with requests. Archive.is is not being spammed with requests, nor do I see anyone here suggesting they are except here: "resources and ASN's … mitigate anything anyone can throw at them" … that seems to indicate you're (mis)reading it as "DoS"?
(I.e., gyrovague is doxing the Archive.today owner¹. Archive.today is, in return, DoSing gyrovague.)
(¹I'm not trying to comment on whether that term is being appropriately applied here, or not.)
> Archive.is has more money, resources and ASN's than Akamai
I assume this is a joke, but Archive.is is a shoestring operation funded through donations.
I am certain they would like people to think that. They have more IPv4 addresses under more ASN's than Akamai control which anyone who has tried to block them would know. Their controlling ASN's are in the Russian Federation which they make no attempt to hide at least for now and why I must assume they are fine with people discussing it. The GDP of the Russian Federation is somewhere north of 2 trillion dollars. Their nodes both in Russia and spread all around the world would not be permitted by Russia to mirror random sites without authorization to do so. One in or from Russia would not defy Russian leadership for very long.

This is simply not true. You can absolutely run a website like this in Russia without any authorization. Who would you even ask? The whole idea is bizarre.
