Archive.org is run by a registered nonprofit instead of what’s likely a sole maintainer, who while I personally appreciate, does seem to go a little unhinged sometimes (like the dispute with Cloudflare DNS).

I assume that answer is not official, since there's nothing more unhinged than archive.org facilitating the page's originator to make alterations after the snapshot.

This also makes it susceptible to government pressure. It's easy to get a page taken down from archive.org and it won't archive anything paywalled.
