Fighting for privacy rights is fighting against fascism. In case there were any doubts that mass surveillance is a fascist's tool.

Privacy isn't some secondary luxury, it's fundamental to democracy and civil liberties.

@taketwo I see where you're coming from, but that invalidates cryptographic signatures and breaks end-to-end attestation.

@forst Yes, and the most annoying part is that if they want to train their stupid AI whatever, they can just clone the underlying repositories instead of hitting us for every URL.

Some botfarm is aggressively crawling lore.kernel.org pretending to be b4 in the user-agent, except that real b4 has a very distinct usage pattern, so it's easy for me to recognize and ban them.

@bagder Great! Obviously, a bad cookie shouldn't break things. I'll report this to Anubis upstream.

@bagder Nice, this means you have a bogus cookie that is messing things up somehow and clearing cookies in your main browser should unblock you.

@bagder no worries. I'll poke at this some more, it's bugging me. If you're still willing to try something, open an incognito window in firefox and see if you have the same result.

@bagder Yeah, wish I was able to replicate that. I do see the 503 in the logs, but it seems to be tied to one IP (which I assume is yours).

@bagder it helps that you get the Stockholm frontend -- it doesn't see a lot of traffic. Any change now?

@bagder Strange. The fact that even the mascot isn't loading suggests that something is going very wrong. What does "lore.kernel.org" resolve to for you (it's actually 5 different systems depending on where in the world you are).

Heads up! Gmail will no longer support checking emails from third-party accounts via POP. https://support.google.com/mail/answer/16604719?hl=en

@bagder just set your browser to identify as curl. ;)

You probably have some kind of client side restriction. I wish we didn't have to resort to using this, but we were dying under abusive crawler onslaught.

Dear [SENDER],

I came upon your message in my [EMAIL PROVIDER] inbox. I was really impressed by your [USE OF TEMPLATING], but it looks like [YOUR LLM OF CHOICE] didn't follow your [PROMPT OR LACK THEREOF].

Please accept my sincerest [CREATIVE EQUIVALENT OF EATING A BUCKET OF D*CKS].
