I run a small browser game—roughly 150 unique weekly active users.
Our Wiki periodically gets absolutely hammered by LLM scraper bots, rotating IP addresses like mad to avoid mitigations like fail2ban (which I do have in place). And even when they're not hitting it hard enough to crash the game (through the external data feeds many of the wiki pages rely on), they're still scraping pretty steadily.
There is no earthly way that my actual users are able to sustain ~400kbps outbound traffic round the clock.
