Thanks for your comments. My understanding is that AntiLeech identifies 'possible' sploggers by user-agent (or IP address), and only once you have confirmed that user-agent as positive does AntiLeech send it the fake content. Therefore, in theory anyway, your regular audience should remain unaffected. I've still to see this in action though, and I'm still uncertain how AntiLeech works alongside FeedBurner. Hi Lorelle.

I’ve still to see this in action though, and I’m still uncertain how AntiLeech works alongside FeedBurner.

Using AntiLeech wasn't designed to put "questionable" content but "unique" content that makes any posts with that unique content appear in search engines, helping to track down splogs and copyright violators using feed content. Unique could mean "4Ur9W8bSy" or "pollywigglewonk". Since everyone using your feed will see whatever you put into AntiLeech, why would you want your legitimate feed reading audience to see something really nasty? Doesn't make sense. Still, we have to fight the battle, but I believe in fighting fair and clean. Great article and good tips.
