# Apr 24, 2026: Full Disallow after months of abuse. History:

# Apr 20: Crawl-delay: 30 + 5% middleware sampling → ignored (970K/24h)
# Apr 23: WAF rule 4 managed_challenge → block → Apple kept hammering at
#         ~22K/hr even after getting 403 on every request.
# Apr 24: Full Disallow. WAF rule 4 now excludes /robots.txt so Apple can
#         read this file and (per Apple spec) must respect the directive.
#         Expected: volume drops to near-zero over 1-2 weeks.
