Anyone else seeing DDoS-like traffic?

My instance is getting pummeled by scrapers crawling nonsense. Like issue and pull searches with every single variant of label combinations.

Everything's coming from a shitload of different residential IPs at a very fast cadence.

There's just not that much content on my instance to warrant this traffic. It could be scraped in a minute or two like this if it were legitimate traffic.

Do you use tor for everyday things?

I was fiddling with some nixos Raspberry Pi images to try the distro out (along with clan) and noticed on first boot they reach out and connect to a tor relay to setup tor ssh.

It's a pretty neat concept, I think it's cool and maybe a quick way to get connected to a new device.

But the idea of connecting to tor relays at all puts me a little on edge. Feels like it'll potentially draw attention to my IP by either relays gather analytics or my ISP for noticing the traffic at all.

Am I being overly paranoid? Am I just completely ignorant to how tor works? Do you use tor on the regular for legit traffic?

Jury finds Elon Musk misled investors during Twitter purchase, absolves him of some fraud claims

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A jury has found Elon Musk liable for defrauding investors by deliberately driving down Twitter's stock price in the tumultuous months leading up to his 2022 acquisition of the social media company for $44 billion. But it absolved him of some fraud allegations, finding that he did not “scheme” to mislead investors.

[...]

The jury awarded shareholders between about $3 and $8 per stock per day as damages, which the plaintiffs' lawyers said amounts to about $2.1 billion in stock and another $500 million in options. Musk's fortune is currently estimated at about $814 billion, much of it tied up in Tesla (TSLA) shares.
