   I really can't overemphasize how destructive this is to the open web. The web is built just as much on a consensus on how to fairly do things as it is on technical measures keep things going, and AI scrapers have blown that up. https://go-to-hellman.blogspot.com/2025/03/ai-bots-are-destroying-open-access.html

   I know Molly White wrote a passionate post recently asking people not to throw away open access just to stop AI scrapers, but many people *don't have a choice* anymore. If the old deal is broken, some people may be forced to take things private.
