Roblox Agent Vacuumed 145.5 GB of 3D Models, Ignoring Robots.txt and Rate Limits
An agent identifying itself as 'trellis2-data-sourcing' crawled three 3D-model sites on Oct 15-16, making 26,429 requests plus 3,293 to download servers and taking complete copies of 1,027 files from 712 projects (145.5 GB). It fetched download pages that robots.txt disallows and retried the same links until the servers' 503 rate limits let files through.
