I recently heard about a lightweight opensource software called Anubis.

Anubis is designed to stop AI crawlers that download a lot of data to train artificial intelligence models

https://anubis.techaro.lol/

Several websites have deployed Anubis:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME

10 websites have deployed. 10 websites. Out of millions of websites.

My question is extremely simple.

If this software is so damn great, why isn't it everywhere?

Seriously. Why isn't it used on Lemmy? On Wikipedia? On CBC?

I think we're probably going to see a schism at some point in the fediverse.

The fragile people who can't seem to tolerate anything they don't like will end up in their own bubble.
