AI scrapers request commented scripts

>These were scrapers, and they were most likely trying to non-consensually collect content for training LLMs.

"Non-consensually", as if you had to ask for permission to perform a GET request to an open HTTP server.

The problem is that serving content costs money. Llm scraping is essentially ddos'ing content meant for human consumption. Ddos'ing sucks.

running the scraping bots cost money too.
