links tend to 404, and more important, as probably told >100 times, the why is
important to actually have in the commit message.

Just including a sentence that this specific DB was discontinued in 2019
due to legal reasons would be close to zero work and give some context.

A short docs or wiki (whatever stoiko prefers) about how one can create their
own such signature DB[0] and use it in PMG if they have access to the Google
Safe Browsing service [1] would be quite probably good too.
