I run an instance of a downloader tool and had lots of chinese IPs mass-download youtube videos with the most generic UA. I started with „just“ blocking their ASNs, but they always came back with another one until I just decided to stop bothering and banned China entirely. I‘m confused on why some chinese ISPs have so many different ASNs - while most major internet providers here have exactly one.
