🛡 iocaine: Aggressive Protection of Websites Against AI Crawlers

iocaine has been introduced — a tool for protecting web resources from AI crawlers and bots. The project allows for the identification of unwanted visitors and feeds them "junk" data, making information collection for LLMs expensive and inefficient. The system is lightweight and can be programmed in Lua, Fennel, or Roto.

🌍 The emergence of such tools triggers an "arms race" between content owners and model developers. The widespread use of poisoning methods could slow down the accumulation of training data for new LLMs.

👤 Website owners and developers gain a way to protect their content from unauthorized use in neural network training without significant server load.
