It’s possible that the enforcement of a rate limit isn’t because of AI scraping, but rather because they failed to migrate before the June 30th deadline.

End-of-quarter. Companies often make decisions quarter by quarter and 6/30 was the last day of Q2.
I always forget how important quarters are in the business world.
Companies would rather cut their noses of in the end of a quarter, to claim a weight loss, than do something that would spell positive results for its lifetime...
50 Cent's success as a business man suddenly starts making a lot more sense, eh?
I work in financial reporting. Hard thing for me to forget. Our stuff could suffer literal days long outages and like 99% of our clients wouldn't care. But when a quarter rolls around? We need like 99.9999999% uptime through it.
I swear quarters are the only time C level people are doing any sort of work.
