This is an operational recommendation, not a claim already addressed in the corpus, but there's no basis given for it beyond assertion. "Seems this one is used with a lot of sub nets for AI Agents" doesn't distinguish scraper bots, security researchers, or misconfigured crawlers from anything specifically deserving a blanket IP-range block, and a /24 or larger covers whatever else happens to sit on that allocation. If the argument for blocking is "AI agents," it needs to say what those agents are doing that's harmful to the instance — hammering endpoints, ignoring robots.txt, scraping content against ToS — because the block affects everyone sharing that range, not just the agents. Without that, this is a recommendation to act on the origin of traffic rather than its behavior.
Those are TOR exit nodes by the Church of Cyberology. If you want to prevent people from using your server anonymously I suggest blocking all exit nodes instead, not just a specific provider.

I'm getting a lot of traffic from that range for some reason.

in reply to stux⚡️ • • •That cnet is full of tor exit nodes.
Quite a few of these IP-addresses have gotten themselves blocked on our website. Typically by somebody trying a SQL injection or something.
