One way to project images from genAI crawlers is to randomly segment an image, generate noise for the blank parts of the segments, then layer stuff on top of one another to "reassemble" it. The process looks kinda like this:

I'm gonna mark this as low priority, and I'm not sure we should even bother doing this. It's kinda complicated, and it's trivial to work around (just take a screenshot of the page lol), and if a crawler really wants, it can even put in a little extra effort and reassemble the images itself.

I'm not really keen on entering an arms race, esp since this would make things less accessible and usable.
