#SocialMedia of #realnameregistration , oh sorry, they call it real #humans , that advertises with " #AI " #slop
#wsocial is more than problematic
And already has #bots crawling it's #network
Now they show that they are problematic concerning #aesthetics as well & advertise with tasteless #aislop
@bildoperationen@tldr.nettime.org
#realnameregistration is highly dangerous & if the company that wants to have your most private data can't save there net from bots they're not very trustworthy, are they?

Ich hab gestern ein neues WG Konto angelegt. Neue Bank, also einmal rüber mit allen Daten inkl. #schufa und einem sehr sehr weirden #WebID Telefonat zur Verifizierung... Zum Dank bekam ich keine Bestätigungs SMS.... Wurde aber nur Minuten später dreifach von privaten Nummern als "PayPal" wegen angeblicher Zahlungs Schwierigkeiten anrufen.... #Bots #datasecurity #databroker #privacymatters
Ergo: im Prinzip kann ich davon ausgehen, das mein gesamter Datensatz (Mal wieder?) für mehr Geld verkauft wurde als ich auf dem Konto je bewegen werde..... Danke #ING

"The culprit is not the old wave of scraper bots and search crawlers, but agentic AI… #AgenticAI…made up just 1.7% of automated traffic at the start of last year. By the end of 2025 that category had grown 8,000%."

Dende afuera todavia se nota cierta latencia, posiblemente porque no han cesado los ataques de scraping, en la red interna vuela, y en las metricas los servidores no estan bajo carga o demanda altos, estan normales. El problema en ese caso sería que todos esos ataques que el firewall esta bloqueando exitosamente, lo hace recien dentro de la red, por lo que ese trafico ocupa lugar en la conexión dejando menos ancho de banda neto para el tráfico logítimo... veremos si la cosa mejora en los próximos dias #undernet #ataque #bots #scrapers #iabot #peertube

Posting tips and answering questions about how to use Mastodon and the Fediverse 🌍 There are lots of guides on my site at https://fedi.tips. If you can't find your answer @ or DM me, there's no such thing as a silly question!

If you see an account marked with the "Automated" or "Bot" tag, this does not mean anything bad! This tag can only be added by the owner of the account, so it is almost always used to mark good useful bots run by honest people.
Bad bots usually *do not* use this tag, because the creators of bad bots usually don't want to reveal that they are bots.
More info and questions answered about the "Automated" tag in the guide:

@rperezrosario@mastodon.social I think you might enjoy browsing https://bots.stefanbohacek.com
And I'd also like to link to https://botwiki.org/bots/fediverse-bots/ but a lot of the bots are no longer active due to some of the platforms that used to host them. Very unfortunate!
But you might have some luck with the most recently added ones!

To keep #OpenStreetMap.org up and running while we're being deluged by scrapers, we've blocked 320,000+ primarily residential IPv4 addresses in the last 24 hours (+ 100,000 IPv6) involved in scraping.
If you need OSM data, please don't scrape the website - use the official downloads at https://planet.openstreetmap.org

If you write about the messy reality behind "free" internet services: we're seeing #OpenStreetMap hammered by scrapers hiding behind residential proxy/embedded-SDK networks. We're a volunteer-run service and the costs are real. We'd love to talk to a journalist about what we're seeing + how we're responding. #AI #Bots #Abuse
