AI Crawlers Must Now Ask Permission to Access Web

Cloudflare has introduced a bold new policy requiring AI crawlers to seek explicit permission before accessing websites protected by its platform. This move aims to give publishers and creators greater control over how their content is used in AI training and to push for more ethical AI development practices. As the battle over data scraping intensifies, Cloudflare’s stance could set a precedent across the web for transparency and consent in AI data collection.
