[privacy] Google Cache gone?

Hi,

Has anyone else noticed that Google's cache is no longer an option
in the search results?

Also, if you search for a domain you normally get a choice between
searching for pages from the domain, links to the domain, the
actual quoted term, or viewing the Google cache for the domain.
If you click on viewing the Google cache, you get back a blank page.

I first noticed the cache being disabled a few days ago.
Anyone know why it was turned off?  (I'm assuming due to privacy and
copyright issues -- that's why I'm posting this the privacy list.)

I can find no discussion of this on the Google Blog or other forums.

                                        -Neal
