We are actively monitoring the increasing bot activity targeting websites and have been continuously updating our user-agent block list while restricting traffic from known bot-hosting IPs associated with attacks and data scraping. However, due to the growing volume of bot traffic, you may experience occasional slowdowns as we swiftly identify and block these connections. To enhance protection and improve user experience, we are rolling out a new Cloudflare-based solution for our partners. This toolset will automatically prevent such attacks, ensuring a smoother and more secure browsing experience for all users.
