Sadly, all of the small shops in my country for electronics and hobby stuff all have these pages (you don't need to disable your adblocker for cloudflare challenges) because of AI. They didn't have them a year and a half ago.

Ai companies have been DDOSing all small websites so badly that they have to use this (or Anubis) in order to actually have a usable website for actual humans.
