This is a little bit of a wall of text but I hope it will be a nice sample for such a setup.

The rate limit is a bit pointless as the scrapers cycle through IPs via residential proxies and large data centers with many IPs and sadly there is an increasing number of scrapers that seems to be able to solve the Anubis challenge.

Never the less, a nice tutorial for the basic setup that does still help to some extend 👍

I wouldnt say pointless but slowly getting less effective over time.
