Yea so the same servers and IP addresses VPN provider use (which are again just cloud providers) are also used for other purposes mainly by scrapers and DDos attacks indeed. Too bad all those cloud providers do not act accordingly in the past 5 - 10 years. Since its getting worse and worse. With the increase of datacenters and centralization, I consider it a duty of these companies to take action to stop these scammers, spammers, scrapers, and attackers.

However, that is often not the case. Now I must say, I created Angie Guardian myself (alternative to Anubis). So hopefully soon I can slowly open some of ASN bans. And see how it goes.
