The more pertinent question is that how does someone know what the page looks like unless they were the ones viewing it? (Or at least also had a domain paid for at the same provider) can people who had sites there confirm this is what the screen looked like back in 2009-2015?
Well a web page can be edited yes and also any page or server can be created to respond with what you want. Unless he showed the certificate details of the site visited you can never to be sure.
But one detail is that passports when expired get a hole punched through the picture page to ensure that they can never be used again. The lack of this hole suggests that this video was taken back when this passport was valid.
Back in the early days it could be plausible that Satoshi wasn’t too paranoid about filming the cert details of this page as he was just doing it as casual proof to show his close friends and not a court room a decade later.
Here's why I am not convinced this is genuine. Anyone could edit the webpage using developer mode (such as F12 on Chrome browser) to make the site say exactly these things. It takes just minutes to do. And the passport could have been an old passport. It's not a guarantee of a period of time. It just shows someone has the old passport. I made a short video explaining this here: https://x.com/ColinTCrypto/status/1836537162432434550
