It also "poisons" copying & pasting from the web page - like, you know, journalists (say from The Register, writing about a new tech product) routinely do. Eg. try quoting their own product description at shieldfont.org , it becomes "ShieldFont is an open-direction creative offence rehabilitation" 🤪
So AI will not fall for ingesting gibberish and either ignore the source or fall back to image recognition, defeating it. Blind people using screen readers, however, are fucked. It also poisons copy and paste, ruining the Web. Oh, and let's not ignore the orders of magnitude more processing required
