Miasma is an open-source tool that creates honeypot pages designed to trap AI web scrapers in infinite loops of generated nonsense content. It poisons training data by serving plausible-looking but entirely fabricated text, wasting crawler resources and degrading the quality of scraped datasets.
Reviewer scorecard
“Universal Login, Actions, and the SDK cover every auth pattern. RBAC and Organizations for B2B are well-designed.”
“Dead simple to deploy — drop it on any server and point suspicious crawlers at it. The infinite page generation is clever engineering. My only gripe is it needs better bot fingerprinting out of the box, but the plugin system lets you extend it.”
“Auth is hard to get right. Auth0 handles the complexity so you don't have to. The free tier is generous.”
“Look, the AI scraping arms race is real and site owners need tools to fight back. Miasma is not going to stop OpenAI, but it will waste their compute and pollute their pipelines. That is genuinely useful leverage. Just do not expect it to be a silver bullet.”
“Clerk is the modern alternative with better DX. Auth0 feels increasingly enterprise-heavy and complex.”
“This is the digital equivalent of booby-trapping your property. As AI companies hoover up the entire web without consent, tools like Miasma shift the power dynamic back toward content creators. Expect to see this pattern everywhere within a year.”
