Well, info on the internet is different than a memory. And perhaps books, speech recording etc are the antidote anyway to tampered memories - making an argument to strengthen First Amendment protections.
More powerful than personal memory, though, might be common knowledge. As they said at Epsilon Theory (using Harvey Weinstein as an example),
Even if everyone in the world believes a certain piece of private information, no one will alter their behavior. Behavior changes ONLY when we believe that everyone else believes the information.
