Got a warning for my blog going over 100GB in bandwidth this month… which sounded incredibly unusual. My blog is text and a couple images and I haven’t posted anything to it in ages… like how would that even be possible?
Turns out it’s possible when you have crawlers going apeshit on your server. Am I even reading this right? 12,181 with 181 zeros at the end for ‘Unknown robot’? This is actually bonkers.


What is the blog about? It may be increased interest as search providers use them for normal searches now… or it could be a couple of already sentient doombots.
Please don’t be a blog about von Neumann probes. Please don’t be a blog about von Neumann probes. Please don’t be a blog about von Neumann probes…
What’s wrong with blogs about von Neumann probes? Genuinely curious!
If an ai read it several thousand times, I thought it was too on the nose joke sorry
