My goals for this firewall were mostly to provide better robot blocking and perhaps some more powerful DDoS protection than my Raspberry Pi 3 web server is capable of delivering. I still have to do some testing before I will know if my new firewall actually provides either of those, but at least I now have the additional ability to run multiple physical web servers on my LAN. Exploring that should be fun, and fun is a very important component of running a home web server.
Not my article. Just sharing.
It seems Anubis’github issues shows many false positives with smartphone browsers. Depending on OP’s target audience it’s worth to hunt for FP
I just wish i could read it, it seems to block based on my IP which isn’t really a good way to identify bots.
I just used a bot to read it: https://web.archive.org/web/20250901133211/https://cheapskatesguide.org/articles/debian-netinstall-waf.html
Here is a mirror https://git.qiuwen.net.cn/Mirror/anubis handle with care
Thanks but i meant the site in the original post https://cheapskatesguide.org/articles/debian-netinstall-waf.html
It says
Your IP address has been blocked. This MAY be because you have made yourself look like a robot by using an unknown VPN or Tor exit node.
Blocking tor is pretty bold, that network is too slow to use for anything but straight up privacy.
How ironic
I guess you will have to resort to online translators or actual web proxies to read these pages 🙄
