Hi, A new wave of wiki scraping has started using tens of thousands of mostly residential IP-addresses from Brazil and China. I added a new filter to detect these and it will ban such IP-addresses immediately for 10 weeks. It's possible that a normal user could get caught by the access pattern used for detecting these. If that happens, I can manually unban you again. Sorry for the inconvenience. But after banning 45000+ new IP-addresses since last night and counting, the server is at least responsive again. I assume they're using something like https://www.scraperapi.com/locations/china-proxies-for-web-scraping/ Jonas _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - [email protected] https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
