But what if they modify the article after you post a link to it?

People notice that. Archive links remove important info from the post, this is a pretty well-settled HN thing with lots of moderator commentary if you want an infinite supply of reasoning.

Frankly, I also think it's not right to put load on archive.org's servers when not necessary.

Also, if people use archive.org explicitly to avoid paywalls, sites are just going to block archive.org, and then we won't have an Archive (to check whether the article gets updated, for instance).

What type of information?
