Hi, bots — c’mon in!

I’m not really sure that I care whether bots scrape Newsonaut and dump its contents into training grounds for large language models. In fact, I kind of hope they do. There is nothing sacred on this site. If it gets chewed up and spat out into the primordial soup of the Internet, then so much the better. Maybe my permuted content will slightly improve the response that someone, somewhere gets from an AI chat. I’m pretty sure any scrapings from Newsonaut would be accurate and possibly, at times, entertaining. So welcome, bots. I embrace the slopiverse. Addendum: OK, so they took it all long ago without my consent. A man can dream of freedom, can’t he?
