As someone that is also affected by this: We see a manifold increase in requests since this LLM crap is going on. Many of these IPs come from companies that obviously work with LLM technology, but the problem is that it's 100s of IPs doing 1 request, not 1 IP doing 100s of requests. It's just extremely unlikely that anyone else is responsible for this.
> IPs come from companies that obviously work with LLM technology
Like from their own ASNs you're saying? Or how are you connecting the IPs with the company?
> is that it's 100s of IPs doing 1 request
Are all of those IPs within the same ranges or scattered?
Thanks a lot for taking the time to talk about your experience btw, as someone who hasn't been hit by this it's interesting to have more details about it before it eventually happens.
