For decades we optimized our websites to make it easier for search engine crawlers to extract data (meta tags, semantic HTML, sitemap.xml, microformats, etc.) to be found in the vast sea of information.
Now I'm thinking about how to be as useless for content scrapers as possible, without compromising quality/accessibility for humans. And how can we still be able to discover new stuff on the Net?

@frederic@chaos.social going back to word of mouth / personal recommendations for sites, rather than search engines
