Seems pretty easy to cause problems for other people with this.

If you follow the link at the end of my comment, you'll be flagged as an LLM.

You could put this in an img tag on a forum or similar and cause mischief.

Don't follow the link below:

If you do follow that link, you can just clear cookies for the site to be unblocked.

Reminds me of the time one of the homies made an image signature footer that was hosted on his own domain, would crawl a thread, and figure out your IP based on the "who is reading this" section of the thread.
