When the internet archive censors a website is it deleted permanently or just not publicly available?

I don't think they censor anything, strictly archiving. Do you know of any instance in which they censored a site?

For one. I'm just curious what their policy is.

The law trumps their policy, to be blunt. They can't afford legal disputes so complying is the best thing they can do. They're still involved in legal shit for "giving away" ebooks too easily during the pandemic.
