I heard stories of incriminating stuff for higher-ups disappearing from archive.org.

I heard stories about a potential Oracle data breach (I think mainly affecting their customers) being removed from Archive.org too. It’s because in general, they comply with requests to remove stuff, which is understandable from an ethical perspective. But do they at least try to explain the reason for the takedown? Is it just not feasible to do that?

Archive.org honors robots.txt retroactively. So anybody can take down their own stuff by adding a link to their robots.txt file.
