Do I have to use the internet slowly?


I've run across more and more websites that are blocking me because I am fast at navigating the internet. I realize that this is probably an anti-bot safeguard but it prevents me from using websites in normal ways. Has anyone else run into this?

You can degrade your network connection: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/tc-netem.8.html#EXAMPL...

if you go to far tho, you start hitting problems again. at 250ms+ latency many sites fail to work and the "bot detection" stuff bites again.
