Anubis rarely ever annoys me (I still prefer it over cloudflare’s Mitm) but this specific visit feels almost vindictive. It used half my CPU cores at full blast for three straight minutes.

It seems to be effective since I can’t really “bypass” it with extensions, so AI crawlers probably can’t either, but damn there really should be an option to complete a manual captcha or email the administrators to complain.

As I’m typing this the challenge is still running xD

    Search engines doing it is good because now you are indexed and will show up in searched and they won’t do it as often as AIs.

    AIs will take your stuff, DDOS you in the meantime and do it periodically - by different people too, they don’t give back anything either
