So on my mbin instance, it's on cloudflare. So I filter the AS numbers there. Don't even reach my server.
On the sites that aren't behind cloudflare. Yep it's on the nginx level. I did consider firewall level. Maybe just make a specific chain for it. But since I was blocking at the nginx level I just did it there for now. I mean it keeps them off the content, but yes it does tell them there's a website there to leech if they change their tactics for example.
You need to block the whole ASN too. Those that are using chrome/firefox UAs change IP every 5 minutes from a random other one in their huuuuuge pools.
