WRRRR AGGRESIVE WEB SCRAPING WRRRR Ok, so many of you were probably hit by aggresive web scraping bots. Here is the deal, I'll be short: While you want to get rid of the bots, and keep the data for yourself, there is a high chance, this is not scraping at all. I suspect foul play here. There is a high probability, that big "official" companies overload sites to close access for other scrapers, particulary for open weight models. (and slow down AI evolution) So my advice: don't cut off the bots completely - let them scrape, just limit them. If you block them completely, you may be doing more harm than you think. If you want open models to exist, and work well, don't cut off all the access.
