    @oilheap CERN certainly has the resources to play in the same league as 'big players'.

    But I am not sure if the smol projects have the resources for a 'proper' solution.
    For example KiCad just uses Cloudflare (which dynamically displays a captcha). But I don't think thats a proper solution; we should not depend on bigtech to defend against bigtech.

    @cccpresser I didn't mean to suggest "everyone deploys cloudflare", but rather to look at what kind of signals and methods CF (and others in this space) use to weed out unwanted traffic.

    @oilheap I would love to know more about that and have a nice solution.

    But currently I am rather pessimistic. Based mainly on the fact that no good solution seems to exist.
    If it were possible to build it, it would exist.
