  "textContent": "> Dear visitor! Two things happened recently:\n>\n>   1. The income from my book sales went from being enough for me to live off (2024) to zero (2026).\n>   2. The traffic to my blog and my books (which were free to read online) increased beyond what I can currently afford. Virtually all of it comes from AI crawlers, so there is no ad income.\n>\n\n>\n> Therefore, I’m taking my blog and my books offline so that I can decide what to do next – especially w.r.t. AI companies stealing my work. This may take a while (think months): I don’t have any energy to deal with this right now.\n>\n> I apologize for this (hopefully temporary) inconvenience to my human readers! You can still buy my books at Payhip.",
