09:34 < adiabat> The problem is that many things are gone, unless you use the default google proxy
09:35 < adiabat> running my own wouldn't help here, since I'd have to get the data somewhere
09:36 < adiabat> the problem is that it's the default, and it's basically straight up lying to you.  "deceptive" doesn't really cut it
09:37 < adiabat> when you run "go build -v" it says: go: downloading github.com/btcsuite/btcd v0.22.0-beta.0.20211005184431-e3449998be39
09:37 < adiabat> but it's not downloading anything from github.  it's downloading it from the google proxy
09:39 < adiabat> so when packages import some weird thing one someone's home server that hasn't existed in years, nobody realizes that that import is broken / gone
09:40 < adiabat> it'll say "go: downloading paddymcpadder.me/goprojects/leftpad v9.99" and work.  But paddymcpadder.me is gone
09:41 < adiabat> The person maintaining the repo doesn't even know that paddymcpadder.me is gone, it's not like anything bad happens to your build
09:41 < adiabat> so eventually lots of the imports are broken but nobody realizes because everyone's using google.  
09:42 < adiabat> Unless there's some weirdo like me who *doesn't* use google's proxy and then everything breaks in weird ways because nobody's tested it
