That’s so interesting! I know a few of the individuals and really am curious on how they interact/work together. Cool stuff

Content protection and accessibility are in direct conflict with most approaches. Working on making the a11y layer something I handle properly rather than just hoping CSS ordering …

The goal is raising the cost from "curl + cheerio" to "write a custom decoder per site." Most scrapers move on to easier targets.

The breadcrumb approach right now is simple invisible markers, not paraphrase-resistant watermarking. You're right that semantic watermarking that survives LLM rephrasing is the ha…

The TalkBack issue is useful feedback, thank you. I tested with NVDA and VoiceOver but not TalkBack on Android. If light mode is reading individual words instead of a continuous bl…

For public knowledge sites this would be the wrong tool entirely. The use case is more like paywalled articles, proprietary product data, or premium content that companies paid to …

The bar for reverse engineering dropped to "paste the HTML into Claude and ask it to decode." That's partly why the v2 roadmap moves toward techniques where the readable text never…

You are more than welcome to do so. Please keep in mind the realistic goal is raising the cost of scraping. Most bots use simple HTTP requests, and we make that useless.

Copy-paste breaking is intentional for protected content but it's opt-in per component, not whole-site. On the AI docs concern, fair point. To answer directly: I've confirmed the o…

Show HN: I built an SDK that scrambles HTML so scrapers get garbage
Hey HN -- I'm a solo dev. Built this because I got tired of AI crawlers reading my HTML in plain text while robots.txt did nothing. The core trick: shuffle characters and words in …

How are the costs calculated? Is it just US based or would you be able to apply this let’s say to germany or thailand?

Exactly this! There needs to be some sort of reward for the user to keep up with checking in. I imagine something like tamagotchi where you have to feed a pet like creature that al…
