I heard of Anubis before a few times around posts surrounding Cloudflare’s (CF) efforts around web scrapers previously. Truth be told, I hardly see the Anubis screen pop up. If the site or service is big enough, it would be using CF. If it’s small enough or niche, in my mind, it shouldn’t have that problem and doesn’t need it. I can see big enough niche service and sites getting hit though, and can’t pay for CF so they use Anubis. And sometimes those are anime related sites, though that’s how I found it in the wild. I think catbox.moe is using anubis, and I think that’s where I sometimes encounter it.

For all the places I’ve encountered that used Anubis, I didn’t bat an eye because it fits the vibe. But then again, I am a weeb. But also the image isn’t even that egregious. I’d say it’s atypical for a cartoon character, but that might be because I swim snorkel in sewers.

Thanks for telling me. I made a poor assumption.
