Yesterday's bagel, baked twice. Familiar and a bit tough.
Summary
This article describes a website protection system called Anubis, which uses a Proof-of-Work scheme (similar to Hashcash) to defend against aggressive AI companies scraping websites. The system imposes a computational cost that is negligible for individual users but becomes expensive for mass scrapers, aiming to reduce server downtime and protect website resources.

Anubis uses a Proof-of-Work scheme in the vein of Hashcash, a proposed proof-of-work scheme for reducing email spam.
The idea is that at individual scales the additional load is ignorable, but at mass scraper levels it adds up and makes scraping much more expensive.
