Where disguised bots operate from

Address blocks, not individual addresses. A heavily used block with many addresses suggests one operator rotating through them.

How this was measured

Every request in the server log was sorted by what it did, not only what it claimed to be. Bots that name themselves are counted as named. Anything claiming to be a browser had to act like one: open a page, fetch its images or icons, move at human speed, and come from outside the big cloud providers. These are estimates. A careful bot can pass the test, and a person with images blocked or a cached icon can fail it, so read the human figures as a good approximation, not an exact count. One person using two devices counts as two visitors. Google Analytics-style tools would show different numbers because most bots never run their script. Logs are kept for 15 days.
