So is the author going to pay my hosting bills for me for all the LLM-directed spamming? If not, then I don't want to hear it.

Lots of places that serve compressed database dumps (like Wikipedia) find themselves flooded by LLMs downloading the full rendered payload for each page they crawl.

Those people using LLMs to read your site are barely going to notice the citation, much less click on it and give you actual traffic.

It's a DDoS by any other name. Block 'em straight to hell.
