If you're mad about Google killing short links all over the Internet, and are saying things like "let's scrape it all before it goes down", I suggest checking out https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/ArchiveTeam_Warrior.

There are better ways to help communities' information needs, he argues. I agree.

He sums it up here, with links to the full paper: https://www.niemanlab.org/2024/04/the-california-journalism-preservation-act-would-do-more-harm-than-good-heres-how-the-state-might-better-help-news/

The California Journalism Preservation Act would do more harm than good. Here’s how the state might better help news
