Some days it seems so obvious

Today I was looking in the search engines for more signs of scrapers showing up in the SEs with my error messages and found a few more of these idiots. Then it crossed my mind that it would sure be nice to know which IP addresses that got blocked from scraping were assoicated with which web sites.

Well duh.

It's obvious I need to embed a bug in my text that ties the scraper to his web site so today starts the next wave of linking the abusers to their websites and opens up opportunities for automatic abuse reports that tie them all together.

Now this has me giddy, I can hardly wait!
