A calendar widget that links to next month will feed a crawler new URLs forever. Session IDs and search filters do the same, and none of it throws an error.
Cap depth and pages per host, and fingerprint content so repeats get dropped.

For a host of reasons, I know this story. I’m a local to Old Town Alexandria, and I’ve spent too much time webcrawling through the annals of the Alexandria and Fredericksburg slave pens.
Birch was a fucking monster and I know he’s burning in hell.

I think that discounts how normalizing webcrawling for any kind of training and research is still a socially contentious topic at the moment. I don't disagree with you, but I don't think this perspective is as clear cut as presented here.

Extremely informative video. An economist would call this an equilibrium unravelling -- makes a lot of sense why so much needs to be gated now. If webcrawling turns a non-excludable product into a competitor, then businesses will do their damndest to make it excludable...

One more suggestion is to work on the logged-out experience+SEO.
Being an open network is a big advantage vs others which have largely closed themselves off to webcrawling, etc.
The logged out experience on bsky.app hasn't improved since the public launch. Lurking w/out an account is important.

And even some of the less egregious but still bad shit people do with locally resourced models with code, or webcrawling is not something I'm going to validate. The mindset is bad and I'll say as much.
That's not bullying, it's not controlling, but it is confrontation.

Are there any independent, ideally EU-based search engines that don't just rehash Google/Bing results? i.e. ones that do their own webcrawling and indexing?

It's still possible to preserve a page from the Herald in the Internet Archive; there's a simple browser extension that also archives outgoing links. So we now need to do this whenever we cite a Herald story in Wikipedia (and of course we could do it each day to their home page as a public service.)

Eventually we were all about getting digital content from publishers, bugging them when they forgot to send it or files were corrupted. Then I built webcrawling robots. Now I do "data transformations," converting data from publishers' way of thinking to ours.
