I recently fought and won 429... On a website ran by the very company I work for. They use a vendor for certain services, and such vendor sells a (terrible) API access for bulk operations, so I whipped out Selenium instead; which meant I, the site "admin", was being throttled with 429. A few pauses here and there, and all was well.
