Its original information that cant be altered. Are you actually able to verify anything you see online as fact? We think it is fact, but there really is no way to know if any of the "experts" that tell us stuff are talking out of their backside or not.

Just look at Wikipedia and how much it’s changed. If archive.org is ever compromised then our ability to obtain accurate information is fucked.

What makes you think the more recent printed copies haven't been altered to fit in with liberalism and political correctness? These trends have been influencing society for decades. You would literally be better off with any edition from 1911 and older, but especially the 1911 one. At least they were refreshingly honest about things like race and sex back then. That's why the encyclopedias in the picture are just mulch. You can get the same thing online and continuously updated too.
