Who Uses Bad Behavior?
With thousands of downloads every week, Bad Behavior is one of the Internet’s most trusted solutions for helping to prevent link spam and other malicious activity, from well-known sites to the smallest blogs.
Unfortunately, I can’t tell you exactly how many people use Bad Behavior, since it does not send any data back to me without the site owner taking explicit action to send the data.
However, I can share with you a few of the organizations, large and small, which trust Bad Behavior to help protect their sites:
- American Library Association
- Cornell University Law School
- Discovery Educator Network
- Dwight Howard (NBA player)
- GNOME
- Harvard University
- KDevelop
- SourceForge
- Student Free Press Assocation
- The (Nashville) Tennessean
- TiVo
- U.S. Department of Education
- And many more…
In fact, Bad Behavior is so effective that many sploggers (spammers who steal content and repost it on their own sites, called splogs) even use it to protect their splogs from competing spammers. I hope you’ll understand why I choose not to link to any of them, though you can find many of them by searching for the error message Bad Behavior sends spammers, which some of them copy and paste right along with their stolen content from unprotected sites.
I’m glad that Bad Behavior helps so many people stop content scrapers, link spammers, and even automated hacking attempts. Find out how Bad Behavior can help you.
