How did you get the url for curl? Do you personally look for hidden links in pages to follow? This isn't an issue for people looking at the page, it's only a problem for systems that automatically follow all the links on a page.


Yea i think the context for my reply got lost. I was responding to someone saying that an LLM powered user-agent (browser) should respect robots.txt. And it wouldn't be clicking the hidden link because it's not crawling.
