I suspect it's because of the number of requests that come from Chinese datacenter ASN values. If you block them, you subsequently get visited by residential proxies from South America and SE Asia, likely the residential proxy network they are referring to. source: i have the same issue...

the line is being blurred as the need for tellers goes down many banks have the tellers performing personal banking adjacent tasks, like selling products, accounts or other upsells to existing customers
i think you're thinking of flair like on reddit,
flag is more of a 'report spam' type feature
kinda shady to just have a bunch of "reviews" all made up.
very neat, setting codex on the task of building a mac-compatible app for my Pharos Microsoft GPS-360 Receiver... we'll see how it goes!
GPS isn't a wireless signal sent by the phone, it is RX only.

Silane, with the chemical formula \(SiH_{4}\), is a highly flammable and toxic inorganic gas used in industries like semiconductors, construction, and dentistry. It serves as a crucial precursor for creating high-purity silicon and is a versatile coupling agent that enhances adhesion between materials like glass and polymers. Its reactivity also allows it to be used in coatings, sealants, and various chemical syntheses.
Chemical Formula: \(SiH_{4}\)
Appearance: A colorless gas with a repulsive odor
Flammability: Highly flammable and pyrophoric, meaning it can ignite spontaneously in air
Toxicity: Very toxic by inhalation and a strong irritant to the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes

update: thanks for all the suggestions
I decided to do some testing with redirecting to a small vps that just keeps the connections open and sends a byte every 10-30 seconds. This worked and the traffic substantially dropped off. After doing some more digging though, I got concerned this may be in itself an abuse of my VPS providers ToS. The risk did not outweigh the benefit. Gzip bombs fell under a similar category of concern.
I've tried localhost redirects, doesn't impact the speed of their requests, all ports are closed on the suspect machines
unfortunately, it seems AWS even has firewalls that will quickly start failing these requests after a few thousand, then they're back up to their high-concurrency rate
