Simple. A honeypot link in a three levels deep menu which no ordinary human would care about that, thanks to a JS animation, needs at least half a second for a human to click on. Any bot that clicks it in less than half a second gets the banhammer. No need for invasive tracking, third party integrations, whatever.

That does sound like a much human friendlier approach than Anubis. I agree that tarpits and honeypots are a good stopgap until the legal system catches up to the rampant abuse of these "AI" companies. It's when your solutions start affecting real human users just because they are not "normal" in some way that I stop being sympathetic.
