This AI scrapping war is disgusting

Today, my ingress node was dropping packets because EVERYONE decided to scrape the hell out of my Gitea instance (Forejo soon)

OpenAI, Microsoft, Amazon and some other rando were all trying to gather data THEY ALREADY HAD

I really need to configure Anubis at the ingress level...

#homelab #selfhosted #faang #ai #openai #microsoft #amazon #gitea #anubis #kubernetes #ingress #nginx

@docyeet may I thank you very much for the Anubis toptip?

Awesome!

@Duckbill4994 My pleasure :)
I’ve only heard of it, when the ArchLinux team put it up on their website

I really hope it’s on the easier side of the installation process

@docyeet seems very doable for my k8s installation: https://xeiaso.net/blog/2025/anubis/
Block AI scrapers with Anubis

I got tired with all the AI scrapers that were bullying my git server, so I made a tool to stop them for good.
