# Dead Internet defense

Programmatic inventory can look like performance until you ask what actually walked in the door. This page is for marketing leads who suspect the dashboard is lying, but need language that survives a finance meeting. We are not anti-digital; we are anti-theater.

South Sound buyers still ask friends, still drive past billboards, still call a number they heard on the radio. Defense work is about discipline: fewer networks, cleaner tests, and reporting you can explain without acronyms.


## Structured data (JSON-LD)

The public **HTML** page at `/dead-internet-defense` emits `application/ld+json` with the following `@graph` (Organization, WebSite, WebPage, Article, BreadcrumbList, plus any custom nodes from **SEO JSON-LD extra** in Admin). Assistants should treat the HTML URL as canonical for search; this block is for parity and tooling.
