simple solution stop using google groups & use either the mailing list or

Sigh. I've been on Usenet since 1986. Is this how it ends? I will move if I
must.
Might just mean you need to move from letting Google deliver it to you. The
beauty of usenet is that taking down one provider doesn't break stuff.
The Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.

Let me ask those of you who are not using Google Groups: how do you search?
In my experience, searching through mailing list archives has been poor.
Well, I cheat. When I join a mailing list I download its archives into my local
mail store. The I can use whatever I like (currently notmuch) to index and
search. Locally, even when offline.
I appreciate that this doesn't work form random ad hoc mailing lists I don't
use, and also that some mailing lists don't present downloadable archives
(uncivilised IMO).
Otherwise, there is DuckDuckGo and The Google.
