    If you’re wondering if it’s really that bad, have this quote:

    GNOME sysadmin, Bart Piotrowski, kindly shared some numbers to let people fully understand the scope of the problem. According to him, in around two hours and a half they received 81k total requests, and out of those only 3% passed Anubi’s proof of work, hinting at 97% of the traffic being bots

    And this is just one quote. The article is full of quotes of people all over reporting they can’t focus on their work because either the infra they rely on is constantly down, or because they’re the ones fighting to keep it functional.

    This shit is unsustainable. Fuck all of these AI companies.
