Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/laylavish/uBlockOrigin-HUGE-AI-Blocklist/issues/96

I typed "a-roll b-roll" into ddg and first 2 results were clearly from content farms:

  • imwechsel.com
  • lightups.io

These sites are definitely content farms for sure, but while I hate content farms so much, I'm not sure if I should add it to this list since it's not purely AI. Like, that site imwechsel.com is clearly an seo content farm site, but searching that site on DDG image search shows clearly that this site does host some authentic images that you might want to see.

How much of that actually appears in everyday searches? I haven't a clue. Probably not much. But even though it is clearly just a spam site that probably nobody wants to see or even cares if it's gone, I still think it might not be the best decision since it could lead people into believing that these images were AI generated, even though they aren't. I'd put it in the nuclear section for sure though.
