* feat(lib): ensure that clients store cookies If a client is misconfigured and does not store cookies, then they can get into a proof of work death spiral with Anubis. This fixes the problem by setting a test cookie whenever the user gets hit with a challenge page. If the test cookie is not there at challenge pass time, then they are blocked. Administrators will also get a log message explaining that the user intentionally broke cookie support and that this behavior is not an Anubis bug. Additionally, this ensures that clients being shown a challenge support gzip-compressed responses by showing the challenge page at gzip level 1. This level is intentionally chosen in order to minimize system impacts. The ClearCookie function is made more generic to account for cookie names as an argument. A correlating SetCookie function was also added to make it easier to set cookies. * chore(lib): clean up test code Signed-off-by: Xe Iaso <me@xeiaso.net> --------- Signed-off-by: Xe Iaso <me@xeiaso.net>

Overview
Anubis weighs the soul of your connection using a proof-of-work challenge in order to protect upstream resources from scraper bots.
This program is designed to help protect the small internet from the endless storm of requests that flood in from AI companies. Anubis is as lightweight as possible to ensure that everyone can afford to protect the communities closest to them.
Anubis is a bit of a nuclear response. This will result in your website being blocked from smaller scrapers and may inhibit "good bots" like the Internet Archive. You can configure bot policy definitions to explicitly allowlist them and we are working on a curated set of "known good" bots to allow for a compromise between discoverability and uptime.
In most cases, you should not need this and can probably get by using Cloudflare to protect a given origin. However, for circumstances where you can't or won't use Cloudflare, Anubis is there for you.
If you want to try this out, connect to anubis.techaro.lol.
