Sell a Bot IP ban-list subscription for $20/year from another host. This is what people often do with abandoned forum traffic, or hammered VoIP routers. =3

- tamrix 2y agoHaha nice idea.
- damir 2y agoOut of curiosity, I checked and got bot hits from 20k+ unique IPs just in the last 10 days... Can easily set up bot IP lookup API...
- Joel_Mckay 2y agoHigh frequency state-change propagation don't scale well on APIs. In such setups, one ends up paying for the connection setup/tear-down, and handling clients concurrency gets expensive. Usually, a per-user access token with a 5 download limit per day is good enough, and can be scripted into peoples blacklist generation cycle. Keep in mind, some ban-lists take awhile to compile and remove redundant subnets etc. It is important to hit the proxy/tor exit nodes first, than the usual country codes for nuisance traffic from users. Have a nice day, =3
