Have you, or anyone, tried legal action? Surely you have some amount of
reasonable suspicion that this is a proxy network, and surely if OpenAI
can be forced to log all conversations, then the operator of a proxy

site. You can then press charges against this person for DDoS.
I'm not personally impacted by this as I don't operate any web services
that are being crawled. My teeth in the game is not wanting the IP
space associated with the networks I run getting made unusable due to
factors essentially outside my control or having my subscribers upset
that they're constantly getting intercepted again for reasons outside my
control.
The question of course would be if the proxy networks involved are even
intending to operate within legal bounds at least as far as we see them
in North America. And of course that assumes there's any viable way to
identify the operator of them and contact that operator.
