Yandex outage data shows malicious bots relocated rather than vanished
Original: Yandex outage: data shows that instead of going dark, malicious bots moved
Cloudflare has published an analysis of the Yandex outage, saying its data indicates that malicious bots did not simply go dark when Yandex went down. Instead, the bot traffic appears to have moved elsewhere, shifting to other targets or sources. The finding suggests bot networks operate resiliently across providers, and the report has drawn attention on tech forums.
Why now: It offers new technical insight into how bot traffic behaves during a major outage of a major search provider.
