But Delicate Arch is the point here.

I heard WW3 will be a major plot element in the next season.

All post sorta normal news stories as “YSK”.

As others probably pointed out already, this is likely somebody playing with LLM bots (unmarked). Good riddance. Not sure about the first one though.

Still funny as hell, hat off to the creators.

Are the posts still up? Can you link them?

Just like yesterday. And the day before that. And all last week. Well, ever since January. 2021? No, I meant '25, but it could be just as well.

Yeah that one’s amazing. If it’s staged, they’re all pretty good actors. Are you sure?

I hesitate to explain.

I had to check if this really is what OP describes. Yes, it is:

Argh! Order a deathtrap from AliExpress!
(I got an electric shock from one of these once - hand made by my landlord - and tbf I’m still alive, but really, don’t)

I’m on the 2nd read-through, some even the 3rd. You should try it too.

If crowdsec works for you thats great but also its a corporate product

It’s also fully FLOSS with dozens of contributors (not to speak of the community-driven blocklists). If they make money with it, great.

not exactly a pure self hosted solution.

Why? I host it, I run it. It’s even in Debian Stable repos, but I choose their own more up-to-date ones.

Allow me to expand on the problem I was having. It wasnt just that I was getting a knock or two, its that I was getting 40 knocks every few seconds scraping every page and searching for a bunch that didnt exist that would allow exploit points in unsecured production vps systems.

• Again, a properly set up WAF will deal with this pronto
• You should not have exploit points in unsecured production systems, full stop.

On a computational level the constant network activity of bytes from webpage, zip files and images downloaded from scrapers pollutes traffic. Anubis stops this by trapping them in a landing page that transmits very little information from the server side.

• And instead you leave the computations to your clients. Which becomes a problem on slow hardware.
• Again, with a properly set up WAF there’s no “traffic pollution” or “downloading of zip files”.

Anubis uses a weighted priority which grades how legit a browser client is.

And apart from the user agent and a few other responses, all of which are easily spoofed, this means “do some javascript stuff on the local client” (there’s a link to an article here somewhere that explains this well) which will eat resources on the client’s machine, which becomes a real pita on e.g. smartphones.

Also, I use one of those less-than-legit, weird and non-regular browsers, and I am being punished by tools like this.

All the self hosters in my internet circle started adopting anubis so I wanted to try it. Anubis was relatively plug and play with prebuilt packages

edit: I feel like this part of OP’s argument needs to be pointed out, it explains so much:

yes
