Tonight, along with updating sites in the #OSINT WhatsMyName project to improve accuracy, I implemented a schema change that will enable downstream #developers to track sites we've removed from the project.

Now, the optional "protection" element in WhatsMyName includes indicators for various protection mechanisms, such as Cloudflare, CAPTCHAs, user authentication, multiple verification methods, and other measures that block automated requests.

Previously, we removed sites requiring authentication (like Facebook or Instagram) or those behind Cloudflare, or relied on third-party sites to check them. With this update, we can reintegrate protected sites into the project, allowing developers of checker tools to create circumvention methods for these protections in their scripts.

I changed the docs to reflect this https://github.com/WebBreacher/WhatsMyName/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md
