collection of colored pixels? This sounds exactly like they are spreading the image, but in low resolution and obfuscated form.
Proper form spreading image without actually spreading it (mostly because of copyright) is to hire a painter and let them create sketch of that image.

- pdpi 5y agoThe point isn’t evading copyright, it’s avoiding propagating the image any further.
- bawolff 5y agoI mentioned copyright because the gp mentioned it as a reason, but unless the rendetion is extremely abstract, i doubt it prevents propagating the image either, except in the most literal sense.
- omnicognate 5y agoLol, I assumed that was a joke but it appears the article says this in all seriousness. This "text" you see in this comment is actually a collection of rendered glyphs.
- dariusj18 5y agoI think the idea is that it's not a file to be crawled, saved and archived as a distinct entity the same way the image is.
