Too bad. The cached pages by Google were one of the good ways to determine the searched page is malicious or not before visiting the actual page. Sigh. #google #web #cache😞

@sourcerer @technews there isn't really a point, archive.org can keep static backups and google can just use their AI compression for search.

I haven't seriously used google products in about 4 years.
