Cloudflare’s CEO has shared that Google is sending 3x less traffic to publishers relating to how much it crawls their sites compared to 6 months ago. But it’s better than OpenAI and Anthropic who send 40x and 1000x fewer users per page crawled than Google.
To protect their business models, publishers will block & sue these companies as freeloaders and switch to paywalls. The Open Web is dying and the Paywall Web will take its place.
