> It wouldn't even be a significant cost and ads would recoup it anyway

I 100% don't get it when websites with lots of content and good SEO just delete everything. Fatwallet (fuck you Rakuten). Yahoo Answers (hey, I didn't say good content).

Even on my own Drupal blogs that I didn't want to maintain/update anymore, I did a giant curl job, recursively regex'd out the login/comment submission fields and dumped them on s3. Voila. And I'm someone that would take 9 attempts to do FizzBuzz.

A bookmark you had to it 20 years ago still works and I still get some Adsense cheque residuals from it for zero effort.
