We're up for renewal with PortableApps.com. The same one year non-EV code signing certificate with a USB token that was US$246 last year is now US$434 from GlobalSign. The lower prices you see some places are for 2+ years.

Note that the certificate itself is only for 1 year regardless of how long you buy one for and you need to go through the renewal process each year just without payment.


The Doctor is better technology created by socialists for the purpose of benefiting the crew. Anything created by Dr Oz in association with right wing billionaires is gonna be the opposite of that.

Word on the street is that the January number is about to get revised down by a lot. Time will tell.

Word on the street is the January numbers are about to get revised down by a good bit.

They don't care. It's the reason they ignore robots.txt and change up their useragents when you specifically block them.

The big nasty AI bots use 10s of thousands of IPs distributed all over China

So... just blacklist all China IPs? I assume China isn't the primary market for most of complaining site-owners.

I wonder if shoving

into the headers of every response would be enough to kill off the worst-offending traffic?


Millions and all over the world

The Chinese AI scrapers/bots are killing quite a bit of the regular web now. YisouSpider absolutely pummeled my open source project's hosting for weeks. Like all Chinese AI scrapers, it ignores robots.txt. So forget about it respecting a Crawl-delay. If you block the user agent, it would calm down for a bit, then it would just come back again using a generic browser user agent from the same IP addresses. It does this across 10s of thousands of IPs.

Just block the whole China, India and similar countries.

You'd need to block the US as well, as most such traffic comes from there. Which is not really reasonable.

I had no idea Yisou was still around, or did somebody buy them? I'm not as up to date on Chinese tech as I should be.

Start blocking /16s.

Lots of the world already doesn't given their current and past actions, especially under the current administration. Google now gives out your personal and financial info to ICE without a judicial warrant.

Biggest thing to note is that this was a so-called "administrative" warrant, not a real judicial warrant. Google did this voluntary.

They're both real.
