I recently noticed an uptick in cold emails and spam after publishing my new website. After a few weeks, I asked Claude/Cursor to obfuscate the email for spam protection in the mailto: link, and thy both used JavaScript with data attributes. Something like: ```
<a
href="#"
class="js-mailto ${className}"
data-email-user="${local}"
data-email-host="${host}"
data-email-subject="${sub}"
>
${children}
</a>
``` And then some light vanilla JS to stitch it together. Works in the browser, and spam has dropped off a cliff since. |
