Has anyone made a browser plug-in that does the following:
1) alert you if the domain was registered after 2023 (especially if it was registered in the last month)
2) tell you if the domain blocks the internet archive from archiving it
3) if it is/was archived give you easy access to that archive (and bonus tells you if the content is similar - in the case of deep links this may be easy
If you guess I want this as a first step to whether a site is likely AI slop - you are the winner

Not the way you think of it but maybe this extension can fit your needs?

the sad thing is that Google has even better data (potentially) than the Internet Archive to identify sites that are scams/slop - as presumably Google has massive data about what their crawler has seen at that URL over time (and also at the IP address) and should be, you would think, capable to using that archival information to detect when a site just changed dramatically in content & form (either by suddenly having 1000's (or many many 1000's of pages of content) or shifts content types
@madeindex @Rycaut -Hmm interesting concept
