If you use this font to protect your text from AI, it also blocks *me, a human* because I use a screen reader. I did try the demo. If you want me to remove your RSS feed, this is the best font to prevent blind people from reading your blog/words. That timer is an inaccessible solution. https://shieldfont.org/#hero #AI #LLM #Accessibility #A11y

I second that complaint. my browser is configured to not download fonts (because they carry embedded code) from arbitrary sources, so the text I get to read is nonsense as well. like Proof of Waste, this is yet another way to harm actual people by making the web less accessible, without really mak...
