Censorship

Topics:

Login-only items for legally dubious content,

Obeys removal requests by site owners sometimes of entire domains,

Retroactively removes (hides) material covered by robots.txt restrictions (They may have stopped doing this - also don't confuse this for the criteria for actually saving/archiving a page, I am talking about end user access to saved/archived content)
