I've soft launched the commercial offering and I'm working on expanding the commercial features before I announce it more publicly. If you pay $50 a month on GitHub sponsors, you get access to BotStopper complete with custom CSS support. You'll also get access to the reputation database I'm working on named hivemind.

FWIW, that's not what I read. You made an assumption about implementation and the effects based on very little information. Xe simply said you can believe (i.e., make assumptions about) whatever you want. You then assumed (another one) that your comment was interpreted as an attack.
Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. There's not enough context in here to know either way.
I'd be happy to talk about it if it existed, I'm still working out the details. But the basic idea is to take advantage of the fact that Anubis is a very popular project from what I've seen with logs that server admin have submitted the same IP blocks and the like hit instances of Anubis so some kind of IP reputation thing would work for this.
I am also working on some noJS checks, but I want to test them with paid customers in order to let a thousand flowers bloom.
Cool. Good luck on both that and Anubis generally — seems like you’ve found something that’s both a meaningful benefit to the common good AND could maybe make a buncha money, or at least enough to pay for development, which is awesome.
Thanks! There's a lot of really hard problems to solve and most of them hinge around trust. I usually default into solving trust by making things open, but security software needs a bit of cloak and dagger by necessity. I'll find a balance I'm sure, but it's an annoying thing to balance.
