Wait. How does that work? Wouldn't plain html be safer because it's JUST html?? Or are there vulnerabilities in just html that I'm not aware of?

They could use a WAF to block AI scrapers, and both Cap and Shieldstral together to block most AI posters but they won't bother.

It's unsafe for their profits.
