    As seen here https://ebisutranslations.com/2018/02/05/seijo-58/

    It works, and it takes a manual look-over to stop, which pirate sites generally don't do.
    It's also fairly effortless if you already use links to chapter pages.
    Also, you readers shouldn't complain since the chapter has nothing to distract your reading.


    Search for "My Pet Is a Holy Maiden 58" and go to any pirate site to see results.

    There is no difference...?

    Edit : ah I see, it's quite interesting to read that. I don't read holy maiden, and I don't see the link at first so I thinks there is no difference, but now I know

    You know what's the ultimate effortless way to combat pirate site?

    Don't post content.

    No content = no pirate sites

    And you don't even have to put in effort to translate anything.

    Win win.

    I understand the need to get rid of sites like those but at same time im glad they exist. For example lets say 1 or 2 years from now what if the translator decides go awol and take away their translation for no one to read i highly doubt anyone will wait how many days it will take for them to catch back up to the last translator but then again there are some that will re-translate up to that point. Those sites are a thing that is to be hated but loved at the same time. Me personally i always read them at the translators website if the translator took them down for some reason ill look up those chapters and see

    What lines of code can they put in to stop this?
    It's quite impossible.
    Yes.
    I use AdBlock on these sites, so I wouldn't know...
    No content = angry readers
    They can't use reader mode, those who block JS can't see it, google translate fails, etc.
    Terrible method. Readers would flame me.

    We have google cache for that.
    So, you don't have to use pirate sites for accessing taken down novels.

    Fun fact. Back when nobody posted translation of Eastern novels, angry readers didn't exist.

    But now :(

    Kinda reminds you how many of these so called "loyal readers" are just entitled little jerks

    They end up in a different site or epub crop up instantly if you are lazy enough to not use google cache

    Then mixed and match all methods! Create Ten methods to get rid of them and randomly use them, no code can analyze which method to used; manual effort will be needed then.
