@puniko tbh I did read that string of comments and felt like: "What is he going on about?"
I mean tbh I get being against AI and scraping. As was said in that thread poisoning images (if thats what you fancy) does not take away too much from the image (I would not much more than compression does anyway.
But what does "poisoning" alt-text actually accomplish. Nothing really. Makes the experience worse for everyone. And to protect what? Alt-Text. A piece of text describing an image. Nothing that is like super fancy or artsy I think.
Also that other thread about all the scraped sites was hillarious as well. Imagine your posts you post publicly and share with a few hundred servers ending up somewhere you don't want them.
I sometimes doubt that people understand the internet or this concept.
