I've thought that there should people, your family and/or friends, who have to sign on to enable you to gamble - where they will be on the line for any debt or a certain % of the debt the person has, etc. E.g. Dana White of UFC ap

If they don't offer to just block the bots instead of you signing on, then I imagine it'd easily be seen as a racket. How much effort then Cloudflare puts on tracking circumvention efforts of bot networks is then another question.

250,000 Starlink customers in Brazil. Contrary I do believe Elon cares about ordinary Brazilians, and ordinary people globally; and what a neat mechanism that him creating highly competitive products and services, allows people to vote for
