Update 4 on the continuing saga that is Bot Defence Ultra 2000!

In the on-going efforts to mitigate 'aggressive bot traffic (https://www.katsbits.com/community/index.php/topic,1382.0.html)' across KatsBits, Cloudflare was set up to act as an authoritative middleman that validates traffic; good (humans) get through, bad (bots) get blocked.

There's more to the story, which will be relayed at a later date, but suffice to say here, regions previously hard blocked from accessing KatsBits should now be able to browse through KatsBits without issue. So, creators in China, Russia, India, Singapore and other areas often hot beds of 'errant' bot activities should have full access once past the Cloudflare 'human' check.

While this does means being reliant, or centralising to a degree, on a third-party, right now this set up is the only practical solution that makes a dent in the aggressive intrusions of AI bots, scrapers and farming scripts that hoover up content for AI training - 'copyright' is the least of our worries when it comes to AI.

Anywho, as before this does mean KatsBits needs your support so drop by Ko-Fi (https://ko-fi.com/katsbits) or Patreon (https://patreon.com/katsbits). And of course if you still have trouble accessing KatsBits don't hesitate to get in touch or send an alert on Discord (https://discord.gg/dGUD2vx) or DMs via The Socials(TM) - "KatsBits" everywhere.
