Is this merged?

[JayBizzle]

Is this merged?

The user-agents marked with ✅ have been added, the others need adding 👍🏻

[newHagen]

This is the UserAgent of the Google-Weblight bot:

• [ ] Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.2.1; en-us; Nexus 5 Build/JOP40D) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko; googleweblight) Chrome/38.0.1025.166 Mobile Safari/535.19 Should be detectable by "googleweblight"

[clementmas]

There's also:

Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 Chrome/114.0.5735.179 Safari/537.36 Google-Ads-Conversions

Should these 2 existing rules be replaced:

• Google-Ads-Creatives-Assistant
• Google-Ads-Overview

with a simple "Google-Ads" detection?

Yeah, go for it 👍

[SoranDK]

Probably no way to detect but these 2 visit my entirely Danish site every day... The first twice a day from the US and the second once a day from China. These are all the useragent headers and all of it seems to be removed via excludes.

Yep, pretty annoying bots like this. Nothing this package can do about that 🤔

[SoranDK]

I found this list if anyone's interested in going through it ;-P https://user-agents.net/bots

I don't have enough experience with regex to do it myself sadly... As my original post showed (hadn't noticed the bot I mentioned already would get catched by the "bot" in the regex).

[tsawitzki]

what about the new generation of AI / Machine Learning crawlers/bots like GPTbot? I don't see them listed here, however the demo detection site recognizes it?

Can you give me some example user agents

[MIJmker]

I found this repo after running into some issues caused by crawlers, but saw the following not in the list. So since you asked for some examples, here are some of them which crashed our sites :/
