Ah, one request, then the next IP doing one and so on, rotating? I mean, they don’t have unlimited adresses. Is there no way to group them together to a observable group, to set quotas? I mean, in the purpose of defense against AI-DDOS and not just for hurting them.
No, I don’t think blocking IP ranges will be effective (except in very specific scenarios). See this comment referencing a blog post about this happening and the traffic was coming from a variety of residential IP allocations. https://lemm.ee/comment/20684186
my point was that even if they don’t have unlimited ips they might have a lot of them, especially if its ipv6, so you couldn’t just block them. but you can use anubis that doesn’t rely on ip filtering
You’re right, and Anubis was the solution they used. I just wanted to mention the IP thing because you did is all.
I hadn’t heard about Anubis before this thread. It’s cool! The idea of wasting some of my “resources” to get to a webpage sucks, but I guess that’s the reality we’re in. If it means a more human oriented internet then it’s worth it.

There’s always Anubis 🤷
Anyway, what if they are backed by some big Chinese corporation with some /32 ipv6 and some /16 ipv4? It’s not that unreasonable
