a critique of anubis on why it basically achieves almost nothing to prevent bot scraping
https://fzakaria.com/2026/07/09/who-does-anubis-actually-stop
Anubis is a bandage on the much larger issue of AI scrapers that no longer respect
robots.txt. Anubis exists because hosts with limited resources have no other option to prevent these big AI hyperscalers from stealing their resources, both hardware and content.As the article points out, its fairly trivial now for these scrapers to bypass Anubis intentionally, however Anubis still blocks a large amount of bot traffic which is more indiscriminately scraping everything it can. A kernel maintainer wrote a piece on this recently. Their perspective is that the responsible way to scrape this data would be to clone the repo and scrape it locally, instead of attempting to load every commit, pull request, etc. via the web interface which is much less efficient.
