Ah, I had a similar idea. There were too many bots or vulnerability scanners hitting /wp-admin.php on my blog. It was flooding my access logs with 404s because I don't rock wordpress. Irksome stuff. So I threw up a little 'surprise' for the ahem penetration testers ahem , if you feel brave: https://www.thran.uk/wp-login.php

#166Once, out of the kindness of my foolish heart, I ran a server with a lot of great sound effects for all and sundry to download. Eventually the bandwidth was getting hammered by a huge number of leechers seemingly from some apps that had simply hard-linked to the resources. After replacing said resources [0] they soon ceased but not without a slew of abusive and entitled emails demanding I restore the SFX. Oh fun time…
So many downloads.

Author is not the distributor of the image.
I want to see this argument play out in court. He's the one specifically replacing one thing with another under some circumstance. Not the person embedding it or the one hosting the image.

#170We slyly added referrer-based logic which would, with 1/20 probability, serve the Goatse.cx image instead.
Needless to say, within 48hrs we never received another deep link request from that competitor.
