Doubtful. You’re not going to mine a bitcoin in 30 seconds.
It’s been pretty popular lately to utilize a proof of work problem to deter AI scrapers. This is likely what you’re seeing.
Anubis is the one I’ve seen most often, but not the only one. https://github.com/techaroHQ/anubis
Thanks, but makes no sense to use 100% of the CPU power on the browser just to detect or stop AI scrapers?
Let's use all the power of a CPU during 30 seconds and save humanity from AI crap. Makes no sense at all.
Let's also make people wait 30 seconds to type something to search. People will just stop using this crap.
Thank you for your tip but this is beyong stupid. Let me just add startpage to blocked domains list.
Thanks again.
