Do you ever go to a website and see a 404 error? They are annoying right. You are pretty sure that the website exists but don't know what happened.

Do you know what the Internet Archives Way Back Machine is? It is a archive of millions of millions of websites. So in the case information has changed you can still see the webpage as it was on a certain date.

 

Now Brave has integrated that Way Back Machine into it's Browser. So when you go to a website and you get a 404 error, you now get a option to look up the website on the Way Back Machine to see what it used to look like. Whether the website was removed on purpose or accident you can still view it from a previous state. Good on Brave for adding this feature. They keep knocking it out of the park.

The WayBack Machine has archived more than 900 billion URL's, 411 billion web pages. Each day it adds hundreds of millions more URLs.
Brave will also give you the WayBack Machine option for the following errors: 404, 408, 410, 451, 500, 502, 503, 504, 509, 520, 521, 523, 524, 525, 526.
