"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

but I would assume there’s an arms race going on behind-the-scenes between Cloudflare and the bot developers

No. CF lost years ago, and the checks can be bypassed easily. It's just that it blacklists ips generating insane traffic but there is a lot of margin

I'll admit that I am a newbie, so I ask in ignorance: have you tried using Anubis + BadBotBlocker + Fail2Ban?

It genuinely worked wonders for my tiny site that was being bombarded.

I put my little blog behind Cloudflare because I was tired of it going down due to scrapers overwhelming my little VPS.
