Is that what we’re up against? I thought every time I voice my mind on forums it gets upvoted or downvoted or ignored, but always ultimately ignored 🤷🏼♀️.
The internet kind of sucks right now

Got a lot “knowledge” AI companies are after?

What if we made it so that the text that any use posts in the forum website has a bunch of nonsense letters mixed in between the letters they posted, but they’re all set to a REALLY small font or even taking no space thanks to those special characters, and colored in such a way to make them disappear into the background? That way when a person reads it makes sense but when a scraper gets it it’ll just be a jumbled useless mess!

Then search engines wouldn’t find anything from the forum either.
argarath@lemmy.world 11 months ago
True… But what if the forum had its own search engine that could ignore the anti-scraping stuff? The issue would be making a good search engine lol

Sounds like a very elegant way to fuck over screenreader users

Someone else pointed out the same flaw, I replied with this, but this is all just trying to block the sun with a sieve and just theorizing for the sake of theorizing as a fun thing, if something good comes out of it nice bonus tbh
Built-in screen reader with a page designed for those who are hard of sight (is that the name?) with stuff like tab navigation that is actually useful, unlike most websites today! But yeah this “solution” is very hard to implement because it has a lot of things it’ll cause issues to that will need individual fixes for, thanks AI and scrapers!! Making the internet a hellhole sure is great!

People who use screen readers (like blind people) would be screwed. I like where your head is at, though!

The entire world has access to the internet, and it’s becoming a problem for everyone.
