Good morning everyone. Just a quick heads up that I've banned a good chunk of IP space in China due to abusive traffic.

I've tried to restrict this where possible to datacenter blocks from Huawei, Tencent, and Alibaba, but China Telecom / Mobile were also heavy sources of suspicious traffic. I doubt we have many (if any) users in China, but if you are affected please let me know.

This has been ongoing for a while and I ignored it initially since the traffic levels were low, but it wasn't anymore.

The ban has very visibly cut our traffic levels:
