IMO this is not enshittification, it’s not the websites fault they struggle with bots. It may not be the best strategy, but enshittification is when a digital service has its customers caugt with vendor lock-in and then exploits them for more profit

city pigeons are descended from rock pigeons which in nature breed on the ground on tall cliffs and stuff, they don’t really build proper nests. This is part of why they thrive in cities, since tall buildings are a perfect nesting opportunity.

I have parents that love me to bits, but their strategy to get me to do my homework was… adversarial? It felt like they were checking my performance, just like the teachers were. It didn’t feel like they were on my side, even though I’m sure they were.
