Find it a pity that the decision was to remove them instead of owning how the ranking is made. it’s going to be very very hard to differentiate between bots and humans at the dns query level, if possible at all. DNS magnitude is about the dispersion of source ips/networks and if this is a distributed bot net, it makes sense. and it’s about 1.1.1.1 queries, not overall dns queries, which they couldn’t possibly obtain. See this more as proof of the impact of these botnets, which I found super interesting. Removing them just makes it poorer imho.
