That was one of my favorite features of Google as it let you see pages while the host server was down or if the content had been removed.
Yet another actually-useful-for-users feature that got removed because profits.

I think the publishers should go ahead and create their own paywall content search engine but I would like the option to have my search results actually be available when I click them.
