Well, this is going to be extremely resource intensive (read: your site will be a DDOS magnet), and it's also an accessibility nightmare.

- ranger_danger 2y agoCurious if you have any better suggestions
- ronsor 2y agoDon't serve your website as PNGs wrapped in a single page application. Also, if the main reason for blocking bots is to reduce server load, this solution is going to require running multiple browser instances on a server, which will require a lot of resources just to serve normal traffic. Edit: I should also mention this is going to chew through bandwidth.
- throwaway888abc 2y agoAn option can be render each div/element as separate image wrapped in aria markup
- ranger_danger 2y agoWouldn't the aria markup contain the very text they don't want bots to have?

- sanchezxh 2y agoYea your right.
