Yes. Every other personal site has whois data attached that's seriously revealing, and I doubt that the person who made their personal site ever intend for it to be visible to everyone.

Some registrars do have privacy guards (such as WhoisGuard on Namecheap) - http://prntscr.com/eiqavv

You're being a little too specific to Scratch. I agree that there should be some method to verify important users, and it could be Scratch. But not every method of verification or security should have to involve Scratch.

NOOOO!!! Never! LS97, don't discourage people from the fun of making websites! I'd rather use plain HTML and CSS than Weebly, or any stupid online site makers. A website is not actually your website if you don't program it yourself.

You could use a CAPTCHA
https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wiki/Captcha_Alternatives_and_thoughts
Usually they just require you to get an API key and drop in their little script to whatever form you want to have blocked from spam.

If you're talking about humans spamming, just add a timer in between posts like how Scratch and most other Scoial Media platforms do.

Here's a tutorial by the Scratch Team for building and publishing to Github Pages

Thank you very much! Should that work for 2.0 as well? Mine is a 2.0 mod. Source code here. Or since Flash is dead it won't work?

Ah, sorry, that only works for 3.0. I'm not very familiar with Flash, but if you can build the files to produce a .swf, you can embed it in an HTML file the way this Scratch 2.0 mod did it

Yes, but I'd personally use https://www.hcaptcha.com/ because they pay you, they are also trusted by Cloudflare https://blog.cloudflare.com/moving-from-recaptcha-to-hcaptcha/
Also reCaptcha just feeds Google's Tracking, so any alternative is a better alternative, and hCaptcha just works *better*.
