Abusive traffic from AI-based bots or application is becoming more prevelant which is why I’m thrilled to introduce the general availability of recoil. Recoil is a highly sophisticated honeypot which can serve a never-ending stream of data to abusive traffic.
Built with Rust and Axum, Recoil is both small and fast, to allow for easily serving thousands of connections.
According to one reviewer:
It’s not just annoying, it’s efficiently annoying.
I hope you find recoil a useful addition to your infrastructure!
nginx protip when configuring recoil with nginx, but sure to set
proxy_buffering off; in the location {} block to ensure clients receive
peak performance.
