> How can enthropy be morally correct or incorrect?
You said the disappearance of content was a feature, not a bug. If it is a feature it was designed. I understood your comment as implying that somebody created this feature.
You now speak about entropy, which one? Boltzmann's or Shanon? This doesn't have to do anything with bit rot or the like. When you write a book, you cannot unwrite it. Is a fait accompli. But if I create a website and I load a bunch of content and after few years I don't pay domain, server space, etc. it will be deleted; at that point a webcrawler may have had copied all the info, or not, we do not know, or somebody may have thought it was worth it and saved a link to it. At a fundamental level, who decides what stays and what is deleted, who owns it if the webcrawler stored it without your permission? These are all moral questions, not technical ones...
