Why are so many archivers banning any IP address that isn't a "healthy" home IP address?

WTF IS THIS??!?

because third worlders are ruining websites for everybody. I can give a couple examples of this that have forced my hand into making rules for specific ASNs / IP ranges, and even Countries in some cases to protect sites(50k+ UV daily, not some tiny blogs) that I operate both for personal use and for clients.
ex 1: randomized search requests to generate high load on one clients site, all coming from a specific ASN, the usual suspects being HostRoyale, m247, OVH, or PoneyTelecom. Solution? Force them to submit a challenge or captcha to enter the site.
ex 2: Thousands of unique IP's from Brazil with randomized identifiers doing GET requests on /category/page/[4 digit page number] to increase and DDoS the server, only solution was to force the entire Country to use a captcha to access the site. Same solution as 1. A few other egregious networks I've outright blocked entirely.

because we are in the late stage of a bubble and every Indian thinks he can make millions selling a dataset to some AI company.
80% of the traffic on Reddit is literally just scraping bots.

Really makes you think why they don't throttle the IP addresses they suspect are "abusive" or time out after too many requests.

This. archive.today (plus all of their related domains, of course) is a corrupt, kike-led organization.

This. We really do need a "Brown Quotient" system to wall it all off from the rest of the world...technologically or otherwise.

what does this prove?

>>106982904
To protect themselves from AI web scrapers, maybe? I don't know, just guessing.
