I love the idea but this will only end up harming your SME in the long run. It would also further entrench the large corps.
The only way something like this would be remotely plausible as a concept would be for enough data providers with overlapping authority on given topics to implement it.
Sadly SMEs have no choice but to go with the flow and allow AI scrapers in. If they don’t, they won’t be as visible in AI generations at the top of the SERPs and they won’t get the visits, which will mean they don’t make the money required to stay afloat.
The fish that attempts to swim against the current ultimately dies and has its corpse carried where the current was going, anyway. Without the sway which comes with size your only option is to go with the flow and drop a little dirty protest every now and then.
