Building a website again, back to #Wordpress I guess.
I see @donncha you’re still busy with the caching plugin :) Any hints on plugins for preventing AI content scrapers?

@bxxb@nerdculture.de @donncha@mastodon.ie Option 1: Don't go online with anything at all. Option 2: https://wordpress.org/plugins/block-ai-crawlers/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/dark-visitors/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/ai-scrape-protect/ or ... Option 3: Implement the necessary methods yourself; see, for example, https://azadvertising.co/how-to-stop-ai-from-scraping-your-website/ In all cases, keep in mind: any information provided in this regard is merely a request or wish to the visiting crawlers. Whether they follow it is up to them. Otherwise, Option 1 remains.
