You can already ask the Internet Archive to take down a content if you can proof the content is yours (e.g. can’t just buy an old domain and demand the internet archive to delete the archived contents put up by the past owners). People also regularly ask them to take down harmful contents as well.
Wait, you just asked the Internet Archive to take down stuff, and they complied without asking for proof of ownership? This seems to run counter with their own guidelines.
That’s a bummer. Nissan can then buy nissan.com when it’s expired (the owner died recently) and erase the old posts from the previous domain owner detailing their legal battle with Nissan for example.
This already happened but it wasn’t the automotive company that took it down, if you look at the page now it’s an advertisement for some “AI-driven” advertising thing
