I took a screenshot of the graph in cloudflare when I switched on the bot challenges.

I wrote the below to explain to our users what was happening, so apologies if the language is too simple for a HN reader.

- 0630, we switched our DNS to proxy through CF, starting the collection of data, and implemented basic bot protections

- Unfortunately whatever anti-bot magic they have isn't quite having the effect, even after two hours.

- 0830, I sign in and take a look at the analytics. It seems like <SITE NAME> is very popular in Vietnam, Brazil, and Indonesia.

- 0845, I make it so users from those countries have to pass a CF "challenge". This is similar to a CAPTCHA, but CF try to make it so there's no "choosing all the cars in an image" if they can help it.

- So far 0% of our Asian audience have passed a challenge.
