We have a fair amount of latitude as we work here to explore our interests as individuals and as an organization. But with a really strong focus on just trying to do a really good job of the things that we set out to do. And admittedly, the North Star, universal access to all knowledge, is a high bar. But we have the...

And we are respectful of rights holders. And one of the ways that we are respectful is that we do respond to requests to have things excluded from the Wayback Machine. So rights holders that make legitimate requests. We actually have human beings that check these things out. We just don't say, oh, so-and-so said, just take that out. But we do consider the request.

We weigh off the evidence, the information that's available to us. That particular case, for example, would live in a category, I would say, where there are times when we learn about situations where there is what may be considered a high probability of real-world harm. and then have to make a decision.
