07:07:32 <jclulow> I had a quick squiz in the logs and it's pretty clear that "tencent cloud" is a hive of villainy
07:08:09 <jclulow> We're dropping the user agents that are obviously bots, and now what's left is bursts of clients that are clearly not people but which have exactly the user agent string a real browser would have
07:08:32 <jclulow> So I foresee some amount of IP range blocks in the near future haha
18:01:18 <jbk> do the bots normally follow redirects? could have some fun if they did :)
18:06:23 <sommerfeld> jbk: internet wisdom says they don't.
18:39:46 <sommerfeld> jbk: that said we might get the blocks wrong so it would be "nice" to respond with a redirect to a "your isp has been blocked for abuse" page.
19:24:57 <jbk> yeah, I suppose that would be the nice thing to do....
19:30:53 <wiedi> some of those bots are stupid enough to get stuck all by themselves. The facebook ai crawler made multiple requests per second fetching the same page for three months before I noticed and manually blocked it :| 
19:32:00 <jbk> i was just wondering what would happen if you redirected them to a hostname that resolved to 127.0.0.1 or the like :)
19:33:18 <richlowe> There are people who give AI user-agents many gigs of gzip 0 or whatever
19:55:00 <sommerfeld> one case someone crafted something of a few hundred KB that expands to a few TB through multiple layers of decompression.
