If you are on a *nix machine you can run:

wget -rkp -l3 -np -nH --cut-dirs=1 http://www.blurofinsanity.com/mit/lockpick.html

If on mac os you'll need to brew install wget or follow this tutorial to use curl http://psung.blogspot.com/2008/06/using-wget-or-curl-to-down...

After you've downloaded the website you can run a simple server in a terminal by navigating to where you downloaded the website and running

python -m SimpleHTTPServer

Then navigate to http://0.0.0.0:8000/lockpicking.html in your web browser.

LPT: I do this with coding tutorial sites before getting on planes so I don't waste money buying internet and time browsing other content.

The Guide has been available for decades. No amount of attention will suppress it; individual copies & links, maybe, but not in general.

This particular text has been floating around the Internet since the eighties, I doubt that this will make any difference. Just search for "mit lockpicking filetype:pdf" and you'll find thousands of copies.

It's just text so hopefully it should be able to stay up.

However I really like backing up things and making a local mirror so I'm not going to stop you. I hate it when something interesting like this vanishes from the internet and it turns out no one has a copy.

So I'm hosting a copy of it for you and anyone else that would like to help preserve it. I just downloaded the copy with:

"wget --mirror --page-requisites --no-parent --convert-links --no-parent --wait=5 --random-wait -U "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14" -e robots=off --progress=bar --level=8 --referer=$2 $1"

Here's a copy I just put on my server: http://www.ifnotequal.com/The-MIT-Lockpicking-Guide-Mirror/m...

I've included a download for it (also hosted on my server) at the top of that page. It's only 290.5KiB.

All the best and enjoy.

mkdir lockpick_guide; cd lockpick_guide

curl "http://www.blurofinsanity.com/mit/chapter[0-9].html" -O http://www.blurofinsanity.com/mit/lockpick.html -O http://www.blurofinsanity.com/mit/appendix.html -O

for i in $(cat * | grep -P "\w+-\w+\.gif" -o | uniq); do curl http://www.blurofinsanity.com/mit/$i -O done

`which python2` -m SimpleHTTPServer

Edit: apparently wget has a magical flag that allows you to download all resources on an HTML page as well. Consider this solution inferior to Ellipsis753's and jamiis's. However, I will leave my reply up since this method is applicable to a lot of other situations as well.
