    Yeah, Google is supposed to de-prioritize websites that hide content. Whatever bribe LinkedIn keeps paying them notwithstanding.

      The secret is to show a bit of the content for a few moments. Long enough for a bot to read enough of it to get the gist, but neither enough content nor for long enough to be worthwhile for a human. Same strategy as a news site paywall, "Sure here's the thing you were rea-WHOOAAA HAHA GOTCHA ACTUALLY A PAYWALL!"

      Dude is just so stupid he won't even allow that.

    Elon blaming wokeness won't work as an excuse.

    I'm starting to worry Elon is going to try make Jews as scapegoat because he's actively wrecking his own site. I swear I didn't use my Jewish Mind Control Ray on him. He's doing it all himself because he's an imbecile 100% naturally.

    Takes months to recover in google from mistakes like this too.
