I'm so old, I remember when websites tried to _block_ bots, not rewrite everything to cater to them. 🙄

I'm so old too, I remember a simple robots.txt did a good job, without corps trying to circumvent it thousands of times a day
@jschauma This one passed my feed, just about made me choke.

Like, you want me to *what* now? GTFO...
@jschauma I'm so old I remember multiple iterations of this. Block bots. Cater to bots. Use semantic HTML to make it easier for machines to read. Fuck semantic HTML, use tons of Fash or JS to make things pretty, fucking machines and the blind in one go.
Something about history and rhyming.
