    Anubis is supposed to filter out and block all those bots from accessing your webpage.

    Iocaine, nepenthes, and/or madore’s book of infinity are intended to redirect them into a maze of randomly generated bullshit, which still consumes resources but is intended to poison the bots’ training data.

    So pick your poison

      We’ve officially reached a place where cyberspace is beginning to look like communing with the arcane. Lol

        I wonder if someone techy can turn the Sworn Book of Honorius into a software program that actually summons spirits and grants powers.

        Fun fact though, Trithemius (an influential Renaissance occultist) authored the Steganographia, which provided the basis upon which modern cryptography was built.

          That IS a fun fact. Super cool!

          Hah, reading the introduction to this book out of curiosity…

          …And he through the council of a certain angel whose name was Hocroel, did write seven volumes of art magic, giving to us the kernel, and to others the shells.

          Oh we’ve got bots for every vice and deadly sin now, taking after their creators.

          Kinda neat that for now, we’ve found a way to Dr. Strange mirror-dimension them for the time being. I hope those techniques proliferate quickly.

          I don’t care what the “commercial net” does at this point. I just want the indie web to survive.
