I swear there's a market to pay for third-world labor to click every link of every major website and store the pages as plain html text, pictures and links. Have image recognition to automatically cut the chum and pop ups, cookies, subscription warnings, and gdpr notices. Users pay $4/mo and access recent copies of whatever they normally browse. Either via a browser extension or a URL router (that served up cached versions, the delay wouldn't work to have someone viewing the site for you and filtering it in realtime).
Imagine having your daily news as a clean PDF document with working links. It might also have the psychological effect of signalling when you're "done" similar to reaching the end of a newspaper
