This gives me a headache.

One note among many: I already have a situation where goodreads has scraped my book and turned bits of my book where I quote other people (like Audre Lorde) into quotes attributed to me. Unsuspecting people then quote 'me' and then everyone gets 'called out' and I have to explain that I have complained to goodreads but nothing happens. I would really like this not to happen but it looks like actually it is going to escalate.

Also I love MY website. Leave it alone!

Who am I going to be if this happens?

What words will I be writing and speaking?

@tansy AI is already scraping every creative "content".
At the moment, I'm feeling extremely angry that they potentially scrape even my voice from my podcast.

My blog is clicked much more often by AI scraping bots than real readers.

My self-therapy against exploding is a new interest in the again growing #zine movement. #Zines, #Artjournals, and #Artbooks have a comeback.

WebinarTV hosts 200,000 “webinars.” A Zoom call you may thought was private might be one of them.

Wikipedia calls the Dead Internet Theory a conspiracy theory, but I've seen my server logs.
