Regarding the residental botnets: check their TLS fingerprint, they usually (at least from my experience) have the same few JA4 hashes that don‘t match with modern browsers


Are they all LG TVs or similar?


Not sure, I couldn‘t find those fingerprints anywhere and I couldn‘t replicate them in any browser I had access to (Safari iOS, Windows & Linux Firefox & Chromium), so I decided to block them. I haven‘t had a single person complain yet. Their UA are usually the most random ones you can find (who uses a PPC mac nowadays?)
