Pff, a closed door never stopped a criminal that wants to break in. Our corporate policy is no doors at all. Takes less time to get where you need to go, so our employees don't waste precious seconds they could instead be using to generate profits.
Would you mind explaining your workflow with these tree style tabs? I am having a hard time picturing how they are used in practice and what benefits they bring.
There are many continuously updated IP blacklists on GitHub. Personally I have an automation that sources 10+ of such lists and blocks all IPs that appear on like 3 or more of them. I'm not sure there are any blacklists specific to "AI", but as far as I know, most of them already included particularly annoying scrapers before the whole GPT craze.
They do seem to have a free tier of sorts. I don't use them personally, I only know of their existence and I've been meaning to give them a try. Seeing the pricing just now though, I might not even bother, unless the free tier is worth anything.
I approve of friend-shaped T-Rex.
