Is this stuff only affecting the not for profit web? What are the for profit sites doing? I haven't seen Anubis around the web elsewhere. Are we just going to get more and tighter login walls and send everything into the deep web?

For profit sites are making deals directly with the AI companies so they can get some more of that profit.
I think we killed the old web. We'll see new ways of communicating, publishing, and gathering over the internet. It's sad, but it's also exciting.
Literally nothing in this data driven world (sports, technology, entertainment, everything is data driven and maximized) is exciting, nothing.
I think what they mean is that most not for profit small sites don't have expensive hardware or DDOS blocking mechanisms. A small 256mb ram vps might be enough for 1000 users per month traffic, but not enough for 200,000 users a day traffic.
