This is interesting, and in some cases desirable. I wonder what technology choices one could make today if they wanted to have an internet presence now but not have it stored forever. Would that even be possible today?
You can block the Internet Archive with a robots.txt file, but no guarantees that other archives/scrapers or even individuals won't index or copy it. But for AI training, what exists in training data probably isn't the full site, and unlikely that an LLM could be spit back out verbatim (that's a guess).
