In Reply to: Rod - I'm getting WAY better speed/response today too - coincidence? posted by Chris from Lafayette on March 27, 2025 at 10:36:12:
I wonder if some of the AI bots have gone away.
I've had to update our firewalls and ban bots for several months. Recently, the site was getting hits from Alibaba IPs from multiple various Class C IP groups causing us to get 40 or 50 pages continually faster than we could keep up so everything is slow. I also see similar issues from Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon and others. Some may be using cloud users and some are the major AI players.
If I'm getting hit, I know everyone is getting hit. The Times has gone after the AI bots as well and is going after them for stealing their intellectual property. I agree with them. Why should we give the bots our IP for free while they're not giving us anything to pay for our costs and having to deal with the degradation of our site.
