I use Zip Bombs to Protect my Server

Traffic from bots is a major issue on the web, with many being malicious and aiming to exploit server vulnerabilities. Zip bombs can be used as a protective measure against these bots. A zip bomb is a small compressed file that expands to an enormous size, overwhelming the bot's server and causing it to crash. This method can be implemented by serving bots a deceptive file that they attempt to decompress, leading to system failures in less sophisticated bots. However, it is not foolproof and can be circumvented by more sophisticated scripts.
