We could consider giving the admin the option (initially) of blocking crawlers if desired by using up-to-date lists of known signatures.

For example, a checkbox in the admin's alternc panel which would activate the following mechanism:

  • add the lists to /etc/apache2/snippets/*.conf.

  • in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, add the following include:


Include /etc/apache2/snippets/*.conf

  • a2enmod rewrite

  • check configuration apache2ctl -t

  • if OK: systemctl restart apache2

For the list generation engine, which could be generated at a frequency to be defined via a cronjob, @camlafit knows what I'm talking about ;)

secondly, in the tuture,

we can imagine another system allowing granular activation by vhost / account / environment / whatelse
