Anubis: A Compromise for a Safer Web
Anubis is a Proof-of-Work scheme designed to deter mass scraper activity on our server. In essence, it's a challenge that requires users to complete a simple task using modern JavaScript features. This may seem like an inconvenience, but its purpose is twofold: first, to slow down AI companies that engage in malicious scraping; second, to provide a "good enough" placeholder solution while developers focus on fingerprinting and identifying legitimate headless browsers.
A Temporary Trade-Off for a Safer Web
Unfortunately, Anubis requires the use of modern JavaScript features, which plugins like JShelter will disable. If you're using such plugins, we kindly request that you disable them while visiting our website. This temporary compromise is necessary to ensure the security and integrity of our server.
Anubis Version 1.20.0: A Requirement for Legitimate Users
Our website is currently running Anubis version 1.20.0, which necessitates that users enable JavaScript to proceed. This measure is a result of the changing social contract around website hosting and the need to prioritize security over convenience.
A Work-in-Progress: No-JS Solution
We understand that this solution may seem cumbersome for some users. However, please note that our no-JS solution is still in development. We're working diligently to find alternative solutions that balance security with user experience.
