       @whitequark the only thing that is going to work is IP banning the scrapers anyway

       @rl_dane @whitequark sounds unfortunate for those who have a TV in the botnet

       @ariadne @whitequark Data point: In 2 days recently one server I help protect had connections from 60k different /20 network blocks. Often thousands simultaneously, all from different IPs. Yes, I blocked them all. I then had to go back and unblock myself, 2 of my 6 fellow sysadmins, and 3 of 12 valued data contributors. I’m pretty sure we’re also blocking some legit visitors, but it was the only way to shed load.

       @bms @whitequark @mathew @noisytoot yeah but dronebl isn't designed to scale to this level of abuse, is it?  I certainly didn't have it in mind when I built it.

       @ariadne @bms @whitequark @mathew @noisytoot Or even just level of traffic, like IRC doesn't mesures let's say hundred of new-IPs per seconds, right?I think it's the kind of thing where you'd need to blocks in batches (btw I'm using IRC to share around abusive IPs and it hit "Excess Flood" quite few times, so wouldn't work for bigger hosts than me)

       @noisytoot @bms @whitequark @mathew @lanodan I mean it did when I built DroneBL.  it's why DNSBL was attractive for IRC abuse mitigation: it allowed for fast defense.
