gollark: Some of them *directly* ask for osmarks.tk or subdomains without being redirected from the external IP.
gollark: Well, some are just scanning by IP, but I get the Host headers.
gollark: No, I mean I have more v6 user traffic than v6 bot traffic.
gollark: I assume the bots are getting their lists of domains to search from certificate transparency logs.
gollark: Or at least somewhat more.
