@FediPact I did apply this nginx config to fight against it and many other IA bots and scrappers:

GitHub - kurren/ai-bots-crawlers: Prevent ai bots to crawl a website (Nginx web server)

Prevent ai bots to crawl a website (Nginx web server) - kurren/ai-bots-crawlers

GitHub (github.com)

returning 444 to them seems a good way to confuse them and decrease server load.
