A lot of information that is not beneficial to the current mainstream narrative and political agenda gets scrubbed from the Internet all the time. In other words, news articles, blog posts and whole web sites get memoryholed.

Internet Archive and its Wayback Machine have preserved the deleted information, “the Internet never forgets” comes from that for a big part.

If they are shut down, the censors (the global cabal that controls the media and politics) will have a field day and most people would have absolutely no means of proving that a piece of information had existed. This is a path towards total information control.
