The rectangle was placed by piXelBow@toast.ooo, with the pixel times sometimes matching to the millisecond.

Just saw this

during the time this was posted there was a bug that allowed for pixels to be stacked up very high and also the canvas wasn't properly syncing

if you do notice anyone else doing botting send a message about it on Matrix or Discord

took a peek at their previous pixels and the more recent ones don't look suspicious as well

The user's whole history is extremely suspicious and composed of actions like that. Here is just one random example from two days after the alleged botting took place:

That's 35 pixels placed in less than half a second.

The user did get punished during the event for exploiting that bug tho
