A recent tragedy is the shuttering of the airplanes.live API. They've recently been bombarded with crazy amounts of traffic from people vibe coding apps, and violating the TOS and using it commercially.
On top of that, after shuttering it to people not feeding data to the system, they were bombarded by LLM written emails, all nearly identical, and all formulaic. It's really sad - but they chuck them right in the bin.
That is a travesty. I can't help but hope we can find ways to protect projects like this in a way that doesn't require government or corporate regulation. Others have mentioned a Web of Trust / Social Credit - if we could wire that into the the http protocol ...
They have a new rule, no feeder, no API, and throw a 403 otherwise.
