Is that not configuration-dependent? Checking only user agents with 
"Mozilla" in them makes it very easy for the AI bots to bypass this while 
annoying ONLY your legitimate viewers. But I guess I can try faking the user 
agent in my browser and seeing what happens. :-)

That, too, appears to be configuration-dependent. Several websites are 
sending me a new Anubis challenge at every single page request.

I do not think adding more energy waste is going to solve that problem.
