How many? Like 1 percent of people?

You're asking me for stats about a statistically non-existent problem you made up. How many article get changed after they get posted and this isn't brought up in the comments?

Also, sometimes articles get changed because authors respond to HN feedback. Interaction between authors and the community is one of the valuable things about the forum. There's no added value to discussing some frozen snapshot of a web page - its a web forum for talking about web links rather than some revision control system.

What type of information?

The domain, for one thing.

You are the one that said that people actually notice that... I was trying to find out where you got that from.

Are you an HN admin trying to defend strange policies?

No, you said 'what if the page changes' which is not really a thing and when it's a thing, it's a totally normal thing. It's a non-problem that I got from your comment.

You can also get the archived page from the archived page, if you prefer the archived page.
