Summary

Google has announced plans to deprecate and remove XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) by 2027, marking the second attempt to phase out this technology after an initial attempt in July 2013. The article frames this as part of Google's pattern of discontinuing technologies, noting that Google has killed almost 300 technologies to date and drawing parallels to the controversial shutdown of Google Reader in March 2013, which occurred just weeks before the first XSLT deprecation attempt.
