Bot Protection Solutions Are Developer-Unfriendly

6/10 Medium

Existing bot protection solutions are difficult to use, have confusing pricing, have limited effectiveness against non-compliant bots, and most are not developer-friendly. Developers struggle to implement solutions that don't game the system or follow standard conventions like robots.txt.

Query: “What are the most common pain points with Vercel for developers in 2025?”3/30/2026

most solutions are not very developer friendly they're kind of hard to use the pricing's kind of weird... They're not playing by the normal rules. It's kind of like when they don't follow the robot txt for scraping.
