If you’ve been blocked, you can’t read this, obviously. > Here’s what you can tell them: > “I’m sorry this is happening to you. Your ISP is probably renting out bandwidth and computing power to web scrapers with distributed IP addresses so I have no other option but block all their networks. A regular ban lasts for 1h. Repeated offenders are banned for a week. If the web scraping continues, so does the banning. You are probably an innocent victim of this arms race. If you have a static IP address, contact me and I can add you to an allow list.” > For a longer explanation, see 2025-07-19 The current setup defending my sites.
