Comment on Open source project fools AI scrapers with poisoned font

Yes, but this is not typical and the experience is degraded compared to traditional screen readers. There are some that have limited OCR capabilities, but they’re typically used for images without alt text or PDFs that are images.
This is a bad idea. Accessibility is fairly complicated. Websites are difficult enough to navigate without this.
