This has been going on for years. A lot of people collecting movies for their personal collection will sometimes buy the vhs version because later versions were sanitized or the music changed because licensing agreements didn’t cover dvd versions (for example, Willy Nelson sings the opening song in the original movie and on the vhs version of “The Electric Horseman,” but an unnamed singer sings it on the dvd release).
As I recall, the most famous history of WWII - Shirer’s Rise & Fall of the Third Reich - uses “perversion” in place of “homosexuality” many places, and “pervert” for “homosexual”. I imagine that by now, all libraries have been scrubbed of the original 1950s-published version, and replaced with a sanitized snowflake version of the book.
