Description

Self-hosted abuse detection and rule enforcement against low-effort mass AI scraping and bots. Uses conventional non-nuclear options. go-away sits in between your site and the Internet / upstream proxy.

Incoming requests can be selected by rules to be actioned or challenged to filter suspicious requests.

The tool is designed [to be] highly flexible so the operator can minimize impact to [legitimate] users, while surgically targeting heavy endpoints or scrapers.

In the other systems

The newest version among them is 0.7.0, as upstream numbers it.
