TelH90@oldsysops @nixCraft WATCH ME!
Cuz this is my daily doing!
- First of all, I'd block all non-Consumer Networks (i.e. entire ASNs associated with said #AIslop corpos - like #aws & #Azure!)
- Then I do check for #UserAgent and block known #bots like #ByteSpider and dynamically block entire IP allocations (minimum /24) as they get used.
- Whenever I can, I geoblock places that are notorious fir #Cybercrime (Russia, "P.R." China, USA,)
The creators of TikTok caused my website to shut down

kgoetzFuck off " #AI " bots (in this image #OpenAI #Claudebot #Bytespider all get a mention) and your #IP #theft

Webguneak eta zerbitzariak badituzue, seguru ongi etorriko zaizuela,
#Bytespider ez nuen ezagutzen.
Norbaitek badu honi buruzko informaziorik?
Gutti entzun dut scraper honi buruz 🧐
J. WilliamsAs a sysadmin, I've been seeing a massive increase the #Bytedance #Bytespider bot indexing the sites I manage. In the order of magnitude of at least 4x the rate of #GoogleBot, which is really saying something. After blocking their IP address range, they started indexing from the #AWS Singapore netblock, which I thought was an interesting workaround.
It's almost like they won't take no for an answer.
My best guess is they're scraping every page and image they can get their hands on to train #AI, unless they're planning to turn #TikTok into a web search engine.
jakenuts🕸️ If your site hasn’t been visited by #ByteSpider, lucky you!
Take a moment to prepare. Sorta like your startup blowing up overnight except you come out even broker and no one actually visits your site.
