It’s possible that the enforcement of a rate limit isn’t because of AI scraping, but rather because they failed to migrate before the June 30th deadline.

Wow such a toxic mechanism should be banned, if I was the small company i would literally perma-call their offices and spam emails all day until payment is sent
I would argue 50% payment upfront and 50% on delivery could be somewhat of a solution, worst case scenario they don't pay on delivery and you wait for half payment
I used to work at an electronics manufacturer in the US and our vendors had the same deals etched out in their invoices.
I sell to Anheuser-Busch and their payment terms are 180 days, it's mega bullshit.
