In a recent tweet we were pointed to
Bytespider, the web crawler byBytedance(TikTok) causing noise for Sentry issues on peoples sites: https://twitter.com/ThisIsSingleton/status/1726387476317773878Upon doing some research I found that this has been going on for the last couple months, and all the errors generated were noisy and unactionable
Given this seems to be a problematic web crawler (that also doesn't respect
robots.txt) and that the problem has existed for a couple months now, let's add Bytespider to the default web crawler filter.
