This is honestly a great idea. None of my sites need or want non-US traffic. Why am I allowing it at all?

- corrral 4y agoNot a new tactic. A classic way to cut down exploit attempts to something you can actually monitor rather than a firehose, for sites that don't need an international audience, is to blackhole IP blocks from China and Russia. Sites have been doing that since at least the early 2000s.
- teh_klev 4y agoThis is futile. There's these services called VPN's that let me exit my traffic into the US.
- CSMastermind 4y agoFor a motivated attacker for sure but if you're just trying to cut down on run of the mill low quality stuff this seems effective.
- shapefrog 4y ago> This is futile. I will pop by and rob you later, I assume you have no windows, doors or locks and wont call the police after I clean you out because it would be futile.
