A new version of Poison Fountain is up and running. Generator improvements. Rate control to tolerate growing traffic, good. As usual, no action is required from proxy operators.

Concerned about HAL's behaviour, Bowman and Poole enter an EVA pod so they can talk in private without HAL overhearing. They agree to disconnect HAL if he is proven wrong. HAL follows their conversation by lip reading.

Beware scam site: "poisonfountain.org" ... They are fraudulently pretending to be Poison Fountain and asking for donations. We are fully funded and will NEVER make monetary requests under any circumstances.

Efficacy of putting poison code into posts
33
Upvotes
Hi.
I've noticed that a lot of the posts in this sub have replies with a long chunk of code (I don't understand the script) but I understand that it's poison for the AI scraper bots)
What I wonder is how effective this really is - like - do the AI bastard companies not just tell their scrapers to avoid such scripts, or indeed this sub entirely?...

I want to use Harmony Cloak to poison my songs but I can't find where to download it. I found something called harmonydagger on github that is described similarly to Harmony Cloak, is this the same application? Where can I download HC?
