Do you also conclude from your logs that there is a huge demand for regular users to log in to your Web server through ssh?

Yes, most certainly people sure do want to ssh into my servers.

Yeah but they're not regular users who are just interested in reading the content. And probably neither are the RSS scrapers.

I don’t think war drivers trying to break into my host aren’t regular users.

But I think successful requests to my RSS feeds are regular users who are routinely checking my feed and have set up some tool to do so. So that’s demand. And it’s pretty regular.

The people trying to ssh are likely doing so automatically on every host in existence.
