Too bad you can’t post a usage notice that anything scrapped to train an AI will be charged and will owe $some-huge-money, then pepper the site with bogus facts, occasionally ask various AI about the bogus fact and use that to prove scraping and invoice the AI’s company.

When one of these guys attacks your site, do they send the info back to the spoofed address or does the scraped info go to their real IP address? Is there some way to get a fix on the actual bot and not on some home user that got his network facing IP address hijacked?

Well, I am not in Australia, but so far my AT&T Uverse has worked well. We don’t need the VOIP or TVOIP we use our cell phones and don’t watch TV so it’s all Internet.

The central office at the other end of that fiber probably has emergency generators too.

In an area power outage, if one keeps the router alive via UPS does the router have anything to talk to? In my case I am “Fiber to the node”, there is a box on the sidewalk at the other end of the block that receives the fiber, then copper to my house.
