I just said you didn't have to justify it. I don't care why you run it. Run whatever you want. The point of the post is that regardless of your reasons for running it, it's unlikely to work in the long run.

And what I said is that all these most visible deployments of Anubis did not deploy it to be a content protection system of any kind, so it doesn't have to work this way at all for them. As long as the server doesn't struggle with load anymore after deploying Anubis, it's a win - and it works so far.
(and frankly, it likely will only need to work until the bubble bursts, making "the long run" irrelevant)

Now I get why people are so weirdly being dismissive about the whole thing. Good luck, it's not going to "burst" any time soon.
Or rather, a "burst" would not change the world in the direction you want it to be.
Not exactly sure what you're talking about. The problem is caused by tons of shitty companies cutting corners to collect training data as fast as possible, fueled by easy money that you get by putting "AI" somewhere in your company's name.
As soon as the investment boom is over, this will be largely gone. LLMs will continue to be trained and data will continue to be scraped, but that alone isn't the problem. Search engine crawlers somehow manage not to DDoS the servers they pull the data from, competent AI scrapers can do the same. In fact, a competent AI scraper wouldn't even be stopped by Anubis as it is right now at all, and yet Anubis works pretty well in practice. Go figure.
