I work for IPinfo. We offer IPinfo Lite for free. With a little bit of time in identifying the ASNs, you can implement a decent way to block a good number of bots fairly easily using the free data alone.
- gavinhking 2mo agoGood to know, thank you. Would you do this by fully blocking particular ASNs? Or something more granular?
- reincoder 2mo agoYou can block entire ASNs. If you are frustrated with bots, blocking Tencent's entire IP address space would have very few downsides. If you have fail2ban or NGINX logs, you can use our CLI to summarize those IPs and identify the ASNs you want to block. But before you block entire ASNs, make sure they are not classified as "ISP" type. For that, visit our website's ASN page first. I have quite a few community posts around this approach. https://community.ipinfo.io/ https://community.ipinfo.io/ If you have raw logs, you can send them to me as well, and I can review them and provide some guidance.
