Are you sure that CF can stop AI bots?
- hsbauauvhabzb 1y agoDo you have a better alternative?
- ATechGuy 1y agoHave you looked into open-source alternatives? I'm assuming that it's a pressing problem for you, and you have already explored alternatives.
- tick_tock_tick 1y agoI have, sadly they are basically worthless and often worse then worthless as they negatively impact the site.
- ATechGuy 1y agoInteresting. Care to list them here so that we all can learn.

- yjftsjthsd-h 1y agoThe target was better than cloudflare, which also demands cookies but with more tracking. This is still better.
- hsbauauvhabzb 1y agoI have not disabled cookies. Cloudflare works fine. Users being able to access a website is a pretty important metric when considering which is ‘better’.
- specialp 1y agoI will tell you that we have had bot super fight mode on for a year and since then we have not had to address abusing traffic nor deal with legitimate people blocked. There is no way we could have achieved such balance. prior to that it was me blocking every Chinese AS under the sun as they shifted and bombarded us with traffic
- 1gn15 1y ago> nor deal with legitimate people blocked How are you so sure of that? Their marketing?
- account42 1y agoSimple: If you ignore people who get blocked or just also make sure they get blocked the same way in all ways they could reach you, then you don't have to deal with them and can just ignore the issue. Fun times ahead for us.
