In case anyone was wondering, #mellowtel still seems to be processing requests. If it's still via the browser botnet still I'm not sure, but I assume so.

Some queries I've noted,

- circumventing query restrictions for searching government business dbs
- loading Instagram pages
- using the perplexity API for determing product recommendations for various questions
- performing Google searches and extracting the AI result
