You take your site off the public internet and paywall it off. Websites on the open internet should be accessible and ideally the goal should be to share something cool with the world, not just to make yourself rich.
- testing22321 2mo ago> You take your site off the public internet and paywall it off I did that. I even printed and bound it in a bunch of dead trees and put it up for sale. The LLMs still stole it.

- thesuitonym 2mo agoWell... They paid someone to be there, not necessarily you.
