What are some strategies for doing that? (This is me, totally not a bot)

Paywalls.

Lets see, since the goal is to prevent webscaping all these should work: paywalls, account only acsess, text obferscation (e.g. using a custom font that maps letters randomly to other ones so it looks fine but to a webscraper it looks like gibberish), HTML obferscation (inserting random characters in the HTML then hiding them using CSS) and many more.
