Is that not configuration-dependent? Checking only user agents with
"Mozilla" in them makes it very easy for the AI bots to bypass this while

That, too, appears to be configuration-dependent. Several websites are
sending me a new Anubis challenge at every single page request.

I do not think adding more energy waste is going to solve that problem.
