It's definitely pointless if you completely miss the point of it.

Cool. Anubis' fundamental purpose is not to prevent all bot access tho, as clearly spelled in its overview:
> This program is designed to help protect the small internet from the endless storm of requests that flood in from AI companies.
OpenAI atlas piggybacking on the user's normal browsing is not within the remit of anubis, because it's not going to take a small site down or dramatically increase hosting costs.

Oh no, who will think of the small assholes?
