Not just the site owners either. I'm guessing not many people on here saw the early days of Gamergate, but one of the things that stoked the fire was the Internet Archive kindly erasing their archives of other websites' pages discussing the mess on request from a person being discussed after their hosting providers were leaned on to give them the boot, changing the past to fit the correct official narrative. It's one of the reasons why no-one involved with that uses them for archiving anything. (Wasn't doxing or anything like that, just explaining what happened was enough.)

In our modern hyperpoliticized era, one has to wonder if the Internet Archive is actually trustworthy for anything contentious anymore.
