The UKHAS wiki (https://ukhas.org.uk) seems to be down at the mo - all I get is:

Bandwidth Limit Exceeded

The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to the site owner reaching his/her bandwidth limit. Please try again later.

Who maintains this these days?

Yeah, it's been like that for about a week now.

I believe it's now hosted by Anthony after we shut down the other habhub servers in 2022, but I could be wrong.

Yeah it is I've fixed it. Something weird going on internally I don't believe its genuinely pulling 300GB+ a month in traffic.

Sadly, a very high chance that the bandwidth has been consumed by one or
more of the very ill-mannered "AI" scraper bots that seem to regard
every website as an extension to their training data file system, and
don't just scrape a site once in a while, but almost continuously.
