Well and that is the problem with digital goods. In "the old days" (TM) it was, that libraries and library-archives had papers and reporting on these speeches and oftentimes even manuscripts of speeches archived.
I would have loved to see a political party, or a newspaper request libraries to delete their copies.
So, what is a digital archive other, then a library, our repository of shared human historic-source-files? Why do we make it that easy for anyone, to destroy things, that might be of interest to future historians/generations?
I strongly believe, that our day and age will be one of the least known to future generations, as so much of the digital artifacts will be lost without the smallest possibility, to recover any artifact of it.
And yes, it is copyrighted material, but was copyright ever conceived as a tool for history-mingling or censorship?
