Introducing ScrapeShield: Discover, Defend & Deter Content Scraping
Mar 29, 2012Matthew Prince

Summary
Introduced ScrapeShield, a new app that combines existing features (email obfuscation, hotlink protection) with new capabilities to detect, defend, and deter content scraping. New features include invisible tracking beacons to identify scraped content, automatic blocking of identified scraping bots, and a 'Maze' feature to tie up scraper resources by routing them into a labyrinth of gibberish. Also added a 'no-pinning' option to prevent image pinning.
