Note that it says they removed it as "potentially harmful information". Information doesn't need to be false to be "potentially harmful". In other words they're not even pretending everything they removed was misinformation, they just think it's perfectly fine to censor the truth when facts are inconvenient for them.

Information can be both truthful and misleading.

They never say for whom it's harmful.
