I added a fake Japanese city called Dorobō to Nomad List to catch data thieves
Years ago, I added a 🇯🇵 Japanese city called Dorobō to Nomad List
Dorobō never existed in real life, but I used it as a bait to see who would copy my data
Now slowly Dorobō is showing up on sites all around the web
Dorobō means "thief" in Japanese 😄

P.S. I'm on 𝕏 too if you'd like to follow more of my stories. And I wrote a book called MAKE about building startups without funding. See a list of my stories or contact me.
