The heavy handed solution is to block by IP address ranges.

For instance 216.73.216.0/22 is anthropic.

They're very aggressive, this is the count of times they're in todays access.log

8436 216.73.216.62

They've got a couple of IP address they use so off with the whole ASN.

The problem is there's a bunch of free apps or vpns that get money by using residential IPs as proxies so you can also get vast numbers of requests spread all over a vietnam telco, like

14.176.135.196 is in the range 14.160.0.0/11 VNPT-VN

and was behaving suspiciously.

@alienghic @ozeng @ifixcoinops my current setup is documented here: https://transjovian.org/view/fight-bots/index – some of these countermeasures are easier to implement than others, all need sysadmin skills and web server access, I think.
