There's one mentioned here: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/data-stealing... Anyone who owns a chrome extension with 50k+ installs is regularly asked to sell it to people (myself included). The

You need to terminate the TLS connection yourself so this prevents people from using DNS proxy, e.g. Cloudflare. Then you have to run a server that has a module that computes the ja3/ja4, e.g. nginx. Even then, it's possible to se

Personally I've found it faster to build using mongo cause you don't need to worry about schemas. You get 32mb per document and you can work out your downstream processing later, e.g. cleanup and serve to postgres, file, wherever.

We also use OVH, Contabo, Hostwinds... Architect so you can be multi-provider and reduce internet centralisation!

Its more like 700GB now on the new server and we were about to have to migrate to a higher tier on Atlas. > maybe you don't need that much uptime for your particular use case. Correct. Thanks for reading!

Hopefully not. Their console is pretty bad so I reckon that will put a lot of people off.

Good shout. I think we'll also run replicas on other providers. We've got some complex geo-fencing stuff to do with regards to data hence why we're just on Hetzner right now.

We also use OVH and have so far not had any downtime in about 6 months.

Good spot - this is wrong. It should've been 4 x 3.84 TB NVMe SSD RAID 5. My colleague set this bit up so I'm not entirely up to speed on the terminology.

Lol yep that could've been the headline. We plan to add replica servers at some point. This DB is not critical to our product hence the relaxed interim setup.

We will be adding additional db servers and running our own replica set eventually. We're just not there yet. Thanks for reading!

Atlas wasn't giving us any support for $3K per month. Hetzner at least have some channel to contact them, which is an improvement. That said, if their uptime is rubbish them we'll probably migrate again. Moving back to Atlas is no

Because we have a few paying clients who seem pretty happy. We have upsold to some clients and have a couple more leads in the pipeline. We are good at stopping bots and we have managed to block most solvers, which puts us (temporarily) ahe

That's a good question. I haven't checked the stats to see how often it happens but I will make a note to return with some info. We're dealing with the entire internet, not just YC companies, and many scrapers / solvers

The solvers are a problem but they give themselves away when they incorrectly fake devices or run out of context. I run a bot detection SaaS and we've had some success blocking them. Their advertised solve times are also wildly inaccur
