> AI bots which hammer servers

You can easily calculate which IPs/networks bots are using by looking at where most traffic comes from and who requests lot of pages with non-human speed.

Each IP address is either from a residential proxy network, or from AWS / GCP / DigitalOcean. And each IP requests at human speed. 1000 of them are an issue though.

If you aggregate over a day, it might become more obvious. Also, datacenter network is a big red flag.

By the way, what's your opinion about running a cryptominer on requests from datacenter and bot IPs?
