Nostr Web Client

In a Nantucket E-Book, the favicon is stored as a base-64 string. The favicon is small enough that it was reasonable to store it as a string, rather than make a GET request to the server.

I am noticing that one particular web scraper keeps requesting that string in the root folder of the site. I'd like to find a way to politely decline its requests.

I keep three images stored as base-64 strings in my e-books: the favicon, and two Apple Touch icons. The largest of these is only 471 bytes, so it doesn't affect the readability of the raw HTML file.
