Miasma

Web crawlers getting stuck in a cloud of poison miasma

AI companies continually scrape the internet at an enormous scale, swallowing up all of its contents to use as training data for their next models. If you have a public website, they are already stealing your work.

Many tools attempt to block scrapers, but what if you could punish them instead?

Miasma does just that! It sends poisoned training data to scrapers alongside self-referential links. Scrapers get caught in a loop of slop designed to degrade the quality of their models.

Miasma is lightning fast with a minimal memory footprint. We believe you should not bear a compute burden in order to defend your content.

Installation

Miasma is available as a Docker image, a Rust library, a pre-built binary, or via your preferred package manager.
