The only time anyone gets automatically blocked by our heuristics is when you 
scrape the repository. No, normal Maven use even by several hundred developers 
simultaneously from one location will not get you blocked. When people ask us 
this someone in the said organization and tried to scrape the contents of Maven 
Central.

First, the taking in of scattered particulars under one Idea,
so that everyone understands what is being talked about ... Second,
the separation of the Idea into parts, by dividing it at the joints,
as nature directs, not breaking any limb in half as a bad carver might.

  -- Plato, Phaedrus (Notes on the Synthesis of Form by C. Alexander)
