„While Cloudflare blocks almost all AI crawlers, there’s one particular bot it cannot block without affecting its customers’ online presence — [Google](https://www.tomshardware.com/tag/google).“
While I hate this, if they were able to block it, [https://web.archive.org/](https://web.archive.org/) would almost cease to exist as it uses near the same method.
That’s a massive number, AI scraping has exploded this year.
Cloudflare calling it a business model shift makes sense the internet wasn’t designed for this level of automated traffic.
Wait is this why cloudlfare keeps having outages recently also? Like literally this morning and not a week or two ago?
what is ai scraping?
Cyberpunk’s Blackwall being created by CloudFlare? Missed that in the lore.
>“The business model of the internet has always been to generate content that drive traffic and then sell either things, subscriptions, or ads, Prince told *Wired*.
yeah that’s the business model that’s been ruining the internet for the last 20 years. i have no interest in saving it.
It’s in cloudfare’s interest to call doom and gloom about the battle against Ai bots.
I believe they will soon announce, a overhaul to pricing and subscription plans, citing these attacks as a reason for increased prices.
