Will be useful also for anyone who needs to automate data collection from Gmail.

ChatGPT is just over two years old, but it has already had a huge impact on the content of articles on PubMed. This is clearly seen in the frequency of use of certain words.
x.com/gbiondizoccai found that the word “delve” has become ten times more common in cardiology articles.😱

EXPLORE DARKNET WITHOUT TOR BROWSER
Search on OnionEngine onionengine.com

Search on clearnet search engines: "site:*.onion.pet", "site:*.onion.rip", "site:*.onion.dog", "site:*onion.*"
Add .dog to .onion URl to open site in clearweb browser.
⚠️ Be careful, there is a lot of scam and phishing on the darknet. There may also be illegal content. Use only for research ⚠️

What should to do if the Wayback Machine (archive org) could not find a saved copy of the website?
You could try searching smaller national web archives such as Trove or PRONI. But this is not step number one.
The first thing to do is to turn to different IP Search engines.
For example, UrlScanIO (urlscan.io) has a "Content" tab on the page of each domain, where you can see the text of its main page. And a "DOM" tab, which displays the HTML code. Sometimes this way you can get to see what the site looked like a few months or even a couple years ago (different for each site).
Netlas (netlas.io) also has the html code for each domain's homepage available (right on the results page). Before searching for a site, you can select the date of scanning (saving the site server's response to the Netlas database), there are several options from 2022 to 2025.
For easy viewing, copy the HTML code from the body field, remove the \t \n \r characters from it, and copy it again in any online HTML Viewer.

Today I once again encountered someone sending a complaint about my posts (this time, strangely enough, complaints about posts on BlueSky). In Telegram, a post or an entire channel can also be deleted at any time by moderation. Especially channels related to cybersecurity or personal data leaks. So, don't forget to export archives of channels you found something useful for yourself (button in the upper right corner in the desktop version).
