Google does tend to abysmally corrupt whatever it puts its corpo-mittens on, unfortunately. So yeah... my worry, as everyone else's is they will do the same here. Probably only benefit without giving back as well.

Hope Google donates regularly to archive.org and as its a non profit, should not be at risk of a google take over

The WayBack Machine is/was a noble service, but I tended to find it painfully slow. Maybe that will change with Google integration.

I don't see why this would change. The Internet Archive is slow because of their limited infrastructure. Their content is not served by a CDN and is located only in a single location in the U.S.

Doubtful. Whenever Google gets involved in something, it usually turns to crap. Just look at Youtube.
