    I don’t hate all bots, I hate this bot specifically because:

    • they intentionally hide that they are a bot to evade our, and everyone else’s, methods of restricting which bots we allow and how much activity we allow.
    • they do not respect the robots.txt
    • the already mentioned lack of rate limiting
