Humans now share the web equally with bots, report warns amid fears of the ‘dead internet’ https://www.independent.co.uk/tech/dead-internet-web-bots-humans-b2530324.html Dead internet theory is real :P
@nixCraft why do people keep sharing this. Web traffic being automated does NOT mean dead internet bots.
It's just web scrapers and normal automation - do we imply that web shouldn't be automated? Am I supposed to do manual labor at all times and write down page results with pen and paper or smt?
Lazy, misleading journalism
@wraptile But not all of the bots are there to crawl for legitimate use such as search engines. Many are scraping data to train AI models and other stuff.
@fury999io believe it or not that's legitimate and perfectly legal :)
