No one else is going to paste that at the end of every comment they make. That's ridiculous.
I've seen several people do it already. Maybe not enough to scare off data harvesters, especially when they copy paste so precisely, but it's not a bad idea and not difficult to do. Perhaps claiming copyright in your about page would be enough?
IANAL but I really doubt it would make a difference to have that on every comment, on a profile, etc.
Not one scraper is going to get scared off because of that link lol
