Thanks for pointing this out! For many months we had AI crawling botnets crawling with such a high bandwidth that they were effectively acting like a large distributed DoS. There was no other option than automatically blocking subnets of these bots. The situation is currently stable. I removed your mentioned subnet from our block list for now. If the subnet is blocked again, or if anyone else is affected by this, just let me know.
