Archive.org is less resistant to censorship though, as they have started removing "objectionable" material from the site, as long as enough people object to it. We saw that play out during the coordinated effort to erase KiwiFarms from the Internet. An effort that not only failed, but made the site far more resilient.
From what I read, this attempt to erase history was cited by one of the financial backers who was supposedly not a fan of KF, but was less of a fan of censorship from utilities such as archive.org.
As John Gilmore famously said "The Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it."
