It looks like it'll be back up soon, and the only alteration will be an introduction by a black historian putting all the racially dodgy shit into perspective, with, as far as anyone can tell, not a frame of the feature itself altered, basically, a video version of this.
And, frankly, compared to DisneyPlus' Star Wars making Greedo say "McClunkey!" just as Han shoots him, this is actually a reasonable alteration. In the meantime, it's still in print on DVD and Blu-Ray and if you have any trouble finding a copy, that's only because this controversy is making those copies sell like hot cakes. And, odds are, if you order one online, with the postal service as wonky as it's been, it'll probably be back on HBO Max by the time you get it.
