As you may have noticed, SourceHut has deployed Anubis to parts of our services to protect ourselves from aggressive LLM crawlers. 1 Much ink has been spilled on the subject of the LLM problem elsewhere, and we needn’t revisit that here. I do want to take this opportunity, however, to clarify how SourceHut views this kind of scraper behavior more generally, and how we feel that the data entrusted to us by our users ought to be used.
