Wonder if you could argue that the Archive.org version is ignoring or misrepresenting copyright as well. After all, if they block content from a previous site on the same domain, maybe that could be read as them saying the current domain owner owns content from previous iterations. Or something. Which would interesting to see the legal reaction to.
Also makes me wonder if a solution could be implemented where domain owners can explicitly give permission for their work to be archived, with the assumption that all content from the current 'iteration' of the site remains accessible, even if the domain changes ownership. So I could "I give the Internet Archive full permission to archive DomainA.com", so the archive keeps said info accessible even if the domain is sold to someone else/expires.
