It's definitely more than enough to stop me as a human wanting to visit the site, so yeah.
In that case a better solution would be to take the site down altogether.

Take down the site entirely because a couple humans get into a fit about it?

The site's down entirely anyway. The silly "proof of work" finishes only to tell me the site is down.
What a waste of time.
