Good practive here is using package cache. It is not that hard to install, and your CI builds will save tons of trafic for you and for global package repos (Github, NPM, Packagist and so on)

Indeed, Go would not have failed here because the global package cache keeps deleted repos. Module authors cannot effect this

Other languages require you to run a cache and set proxy config up for the builders
