ShieldFont FTW! This is genius.

"[C]reators should have a meaningful say in whether their work is used to train AI systems."

"Where consent is not respected, technical design can make taking that work without permission less useful and more costly. … Being discoverable does not mean consenting to AI training.”

New font turns ordinary webpages into nonsense for AI scrapers

“ShieldFont” aims to poison AI training data without making pages unreadable for people.

The web’s newest weapon against AI scrapers is a font

Fucking "app culture" drives me crazy. I got asked to install a mobile app just to look at the itinerary and accommodation information for a trip I'm going on.

Why isn't it just a web page?

So obviously I said "fuck that noise, hold my beer", reverse-engineered the app, and re-implemented it as a web page generator. It does all the same things as the "app" except now there's no tracking, no ads, and you get all the Web's features "for free" (deep links, copy-pasting, search-in-page, printing, works on anything, etc.).

Here's the full story:

現在的網頁設計太膨脹了。不應該是這樣的...業界每過幾年就換一個前端JS框架卻忽略了要表達的內涵，各種現成同質性的的模板主題也抹殺了學HTML自製網頁的樂趣。

看看 #Neocities 的Web 2.0設計，沒有JavaScript，網頁就只是網頁，沒有傷害使用者的能力。對極簡主義者(suckless)來說，網頁設計應該是要不依賴JavaScript就能運作的。所有功能應該用plain HTML與CSS來implement，JavaScript最多只是執行個小工具，不應該使用前端框架，更不該加密與過度混淆。雖然這會讓網頁看起來很簡陋（參考FSF的設計風格，他們難以讓網頁全寬顯示。Neocities上很多網站也是這樣），但這讓網頁是可被信任的被稽核的。網頁設計不應該只考慮在Firefox與Chrome的渲染效果，還要在純文字的終端機w3m也能閱讀。甚至讀者想要的話應該要能閱讀HTML（例如Richard Stallman他老人家不用瀏覽器，而是用curl下載網頁閱讀）就能看到本文。
JavaScript的話要符合LibreJS的標準，宣告自身是開源的可信賴的才載入。
