@bart Unfortunately it is extremely common. Sometimes 100s of req/s hitting expensive API endpoints. Multiple IPs, faked UAs.

@Firefishy @bart why scrap when there is planet.osm available?

@wikiyu @bart Sssssh! Don't give away our secret s̶a̶u̶c̶e̶ source. Honestly, no idea. The full planet.osm data would be a lot easier to use than painfully slow scraped data.
