A professor of web archiving, Michael Nelson @phonedudemln.bsky.social, wrote a short Twitter thread about how Google Cache worked and its benefits.

Michael L. Nelson @phonedude_mln Google is removing another piece of useful infrastructure :-( There were many cases where pages (often social media) were indexed, then deleted from the live web, but were not yet archived. You could discover them via a SE, then archive the cached version. #WebArchiveWednesday Quote Search Engine Land @sengineland · Feb 1 Google Search officially retires cache link via @rustybrick http://ow.ly/AO0m105eXxA 11:28 AM · Feb 2, 2024 · 334 Views

Open-source tools power nearly every web archive, including Perma.cc. From bot defenses to shrinking funding, sustaining this critical preservation infrastructure can't be an afterthought.
