Is there additional onus of proof for web based material? How do you prove that survey responses are real, that notes from interviews are real .... The verification is in how you frame the project and write up the results.

Would anyone know what are the criteria concerning internet material's validity? Is it common that you as a researcher will be asked to prove that the material you have collected from the internet is real. Since a lot of internet data disappears everyday, mere url addresses are not enough. Even html files can be modified after saving webpages. I would appreciate if someone had time to answer.
