What's even stopping them from just uploading to archive.org?

Cause tech illiterate people need as much friction removed as possible.

This isn’t a tech illiteracy issue. Sure you CAN take a video, and upload it to archive.org from your phone.

Try doing that while actively being abused by ICE.

It’s about making the process as foolproof as possible, because seconds matter here, and making sure that footage is backed up as quickly as possible is paramount.
