austin-weeks/miasmaTrap AI web scrapers in an endless poison pit.
AI companies continually scrape the internet at an enormous scale, swallowing up all of its contents to use as training data for their next models. If you have a public website, they are already stealing your work.
Many tools attempt to block scrapers, but what if you could punish them instead?
Miasma does just that! It sends poisoned training data to scrapers alongside self-referential links. Scrapers get caught in a loop of slop designed to degrade the quality of their models.
Miasma is lightning fast with a minimal memory footprint. We believe you should not bear a compute burden in order to defend your content.
Check out our documentation to get started!
Miasma is available as a Docker image, a Rust library, a pre-built binary, or via your preferred package manager.
[!CAUTION] There is some risk in deploying this software. Please fully read our documentation and see our disclaimer before use.
