AI scrapers request commented scripts

Sounds like you should give the bots exactly what they want... a 512MB file of random data.

Most people have to pay for their bandwidth, though. That's a lot of data to send out over and over.

Scraper sinkhole of randomly generated inter-linked files filled with AI poison could work. No human would click that link, so it leads to the "exclusive club".

Outbound traffic normally costs more than inbound one, so the asymmetry is set up wrong here. Data poisoning is probably the way.

That's what zip bombs are for.

512MB file of incredibly compressible data, then?

Could I recommend https://cubes.hgreer.com/ssg/output.html ?

50:1 compression ratio, but it's legitimately an implementation of a rubiks cube, that I wasn't actually making as any sort of trap, just wasn't thinking about file size, so any rule that filters it out is going to have a nasty false positive rate

That's leaving a lot of opportunity on the table.

The real money is in monetizing ad responses to AI scrapers so that LLMs are biased toward recommending certain products. The stealth startup I've founded does exactly this. Ad-poisoning-as-a-service is a huge untapped market.

Now that's a paid subscription I can get behind, especially if it suggests that Meta should cut Rob Schneider a check for $200,000,000,000 to make more movies.
