Keeping my website agent-friendly
I was getting a lot of spam entries for my newly launched newsletter, and the first thought that came to my mind was to enable the "bot fight mode" from Cloudflare, as you see below.
But I did not do that and implemented a separate bot fight method that doesn't block all bots from the site, and have decided to keep my website agent-friendly or bot-friendly for now.
Because no matter how much we ignore or hate the fact, but the future is going to be full of autonomous agents and I see no points in blocking all of them. I think, everyone will have their agents that they assign some tasks to and if the agent is unable to access your website, it will simply go to another website and get the same info.
So... I am not blocking access to bots from my website.
