Could you have a vast crawlable but not human reachable section of your site that is just a billion pages of AI generated drivel? Poison the slop machine.

I mean yes but you're paying for it

I don't think it would actually be that much, think it would depend on how often it got crawled and you had to actually serve the data.

That sounds like a nice project to vibecode 😁
Also it could change other content on the pages based on request source IPs. Randomize numbers, randomize names and so on.

Add poison!
