With cloudflare's new Content Signals Policy, publishers can now tell AI crawlers how their content can (or canโt) be used:
๐น Search (traffic potential)
๐น Train (AI model building)
๐น Crawl (site scraping)
Our CEO, Eric Hochberger, told digiday:
๐ โThat much-needed nuance is overdue and a genuinely positive step forward. Iโd love to see it go further to truly empower publishers to regain control over their content.โ
These updates set the stage for legal precedent and technical protections, though enforceability remains a question mark.
One small step with big implications. ๐
Should AI be legally required to honor these signals?
