yes but that makes it impossible to identify the source of this.
we WANT to identify the source.

If it was a mistake by someone, we want to make him aware of it so he
can fix his scripts or AI agents. Mistakes happen and thats ok

If its mallicious then we need to be aware of who it is, as mallicious
people can be very damaging

thx
