The rise of AI spam and online aggression is now affecting business infrastructure across our region of green fields and coastlines.
The alarming spread of AI-generated spam is crippling our local economies — and threatening family-run businesses.
As a region, we’ve benefited from trusted platforms like DC Trades, who use a custom AI system designed to detect and clean up online spam.
This system enables them to identify rogue AI activity and contact affected businesses — often those who unknowingly trusted unsafe SEO tactics.
By doing so, DC Trades has helped shield this corner of the South West from digital exploitation.
But the biggest threat DC Trades now faces?
The sheer volume of AI spam. The flood of fake websites.
Put simply, their AI lacks the power to keep pace.
That’s why we’re proud to support DC Trades as they step forward — urging small businesses to screen their content, audit their sites, and verify their legitimacy.
However, this challenge is no longer regional.
We now officially call on the UFDCB to intervene and speak on behalf of business owners throughout the South West. We also beleive companies like Trustpilot can help aswell.
This leads us to one question:
> Google. Microsoft. OpenAI. What’s going on?
You’re needed in this battle.
This is no longer about SEO rankings — it's about protecting truth, trust, and digital legitimacy.
We believe in your potential to build a safer internet.
But we also believe this moment demands action.
DC Trades AI is struggling to keep up. But what about the tech giants?
We call on you now — not to compete, but to help.
Small businesses are ready to restore order.
But they need the global leaders to step in.
