A poorly written bot spamming your site with millions of API requests all getting 400s deserves all the blame.

The solution to someone constantly spamming your phone is not too pick up each call and say “call back later” bit to block their number.

The moment I become AWS and need to support millions of those poorly written bots because they’re my customers I’ll bother.
