Sooo many new spam feeds to mute in the twtxt.net discovery view. :-( The RSS/Atom to Twtxt feed bridge was a mistake, I believe.

Not sure if that works, sounds like a chicken-'n'-egg problem.

When I chose the MIT license for all of my software, I thought:
“Should I use GPL, which I don’t really understand? Is that worth it? Yeah, there is a theoretical possibility that some company might use my code in their proprietary product … and then what? Should I sue them to enforce the GPL? I’m not going to do that anyway, so I’ll just use the MIT license.”
And now we have those LLM scrapers and now it’s suddenly a reality that these companies (ab)use my code. I can see it in my logs. I didn’t expect that back then.
GPL wouldn’t help, either, of course. (Regardless, I now think that GPL would have been the better choice anyway.)
I’m honestly considering taking my code and website offline. Maybe make it accessible through some obscure protocol like Gopher or Gemini, but no more HTTP.
(Yes, Anubis might help. Temporarily.)
I’m just tired.
