    @Trilarion such a change is unlikely to constitute an "adaption" Commented May 18, 2020 at 19:01
  • This is a very special case you uncovered, due to very sad circumstances. Please see my MSO question about this case here: meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/367314/… Commented May 18, 2020 at 19:05
  • @Luuklag all my examples are due to that, yes. But theoretically any URL rewrite could cause it (http -> https for example). Commented May 18, 2020 at 19:09
  • @River I'm not a lawyer, so I don't know. Links are important parts of the posts and changing them kind of risks losing access to their content. A changed comma or space in a text seems innocent but changing a link is a bit like changing a whole word. Not sure if this is not an adaptation. Commented May 19, 2020 at 6:44
