So, what's up with these bots, why am I hearing about that so often lately? I mean, DDoS atacks aren't a new thing, and, honestly, this is pretty much the reason why Cloudflare even exists, but I'd expect OpenAI bots (or whatever this is now) to be a little bit easier to deal with, no? Like, simply having resonable aggressive fail2ban policy? Or do they really behave like a botnet, where each request comes from different IP from a different network? How? Why? What is this thing?
