Top Forums Web Development Discrepancies Between Our Mobile Detection Code and Google Analytics Regarding Chinese User Agents Post 303040224 by Neo on Friday 25th of October 2019 06:09:01 AM

Here is a link to a similar discussion about the same Chinese bots, identified as "mobile devices" by our system which have been hammering the site of late:

Blocking aggressive Chinese crawlers/scrapers/bots - John Large - Technology, Hardware,Web Development, Digital Privacy & Ethics

So far, I am just sending many of these UAs to 403, but may come up with some better idea after more logging and analysis.

I am not keen on "mass blocking" but these bots are really extreme and the IP addresses are changing so much that IP address blocking will not work; so I have to block based on UA.
