In the last two months, ardour.org's instance of fail2ban has blocked more than 1.2M distinct IP addresses that were trawling our git repo using http instead of just fetching the goddam repository.
We shut down the website/http frontend to our git repo. There are still 20k distinct IP addresses per day hitting up a site that issues NOTHING but 404 errors.
