German public radio and television (SWR) just published a whitepaper about the fediverse: "Chancen des Fediverse für Journalismus"

That would be amazing.

Perhaps that was exactly the intent, to ensure that only actual humans read the content? Germans certainly are a breed of their own, but if they (generally speaking, of course) are not ones to do something odd like that without intent.

If that's the case, it has the opposite effect. Humans generally benefit from being able to select text and not just read from an image. It's of course especially important for blind people.
Meanwhile computers can easily read images via OCR algorithms.

It wasn't intentional. One of the authors wrote on Mastodon that there's "something wrong with the text layers" and the Media Lab is working on it.
It seems like they outsourced the pdf creation to someone who doesn't know how to properly create pdf's or the wrong version got published, which I'm suspecting because the title of the pdf is "layout draft 2024-12-16".

Central thesis: "In a world where established platforms are turning from the promised rescue of digital journalism to its danger, journalism should consider being active in the fediverse."
Most "journalists" are just stooges of the ruling class.
They won't switch until their overlords tell them to.
