BTCCSquare news:
Cloudflare, the world's largest internet security provider, has taken a decisive stance against unfettered AI web scraping by defaulting to block AI crawlers across its network. The MOVE comes as publishers increasingly seek control over how their content is used to train commercial AI models.
The new policy allows website owners to set pricing for authorized scraping activities, creating a potential revenue stream while maintaining content sovereignty. This shift reflects growing tensions between AI developers hungry for training data and content creators demanding compensation.
