I noticed when everytime I'd share one of my sites new features or pages, the page would get a bit slower just after posting, then I asked Claude to analyze it

And within 8 seconds there's thousands of crawlers opening the page!

One is a military intelligence firm, that scans social media for breaking news and sells alerts to newsrooms, banks, companies and government, it specifically follows accounts with many followers

Another one is a social media monitoring company that tracks what people say online

I knew of course high frequency trading firms use online news to trade fast on things, but interesting to see it in real life

Twitterbot (X) of course is first, within 0 seconds of sharing, it opens it (probably when I wrote the tweet)

TL;DR they're watching you!
