Gregory's Server@ajsadauskas @Researchbuzz @cwebber Anyone can request a page to be removed from IA, especially ones' own domains, those can even be permanently excluded on request.
If one wants to discredit IA in court, one can argue that many "trusted" entities can upload WARCs and have them show up on IA. I don't think this is it either.
@ao @researchbuzz @cwebber You're assuming the content to be removed from IA is on one's own domains.
But what if it's content that was widely published on many domains?
Perhaps on websites like Reuters, the NY Times, CNN, The BBC, The Guardian, The Washington Post, etc?
This probably wouldn't cut it, without external pressure: "Hi IA, can you purge your archives of the websites of every major global news outlet? I believe they have reported factually correct information that I now find inconvenient..."
And that's just one example of how or why someone would want to make IA go away...
