looks like some new fucking bullshit for people to block on their instances:
User-Agent: FediBigData/1.0 (research crawler; https://github.com/example/fedi-big-data)
It's signed by https://81.27.105.14:8080/actor#main-key which is frankly fucking bizarre and doesn't work anyway.
But you should probably block it regardless.
@dumpsterqueer best way to block?
@bjoern domain block 81.27.105.14:8080 and/or header block user-agent (?i)^.*FediBigData.*$
@dumpsterqueer or not block it and serve it garbage instead 🤔
@bjarne if you can be arsed sure
malicious AND incompetent, truly the 2-for-1 special
