About the Bot Killer (Proxy/VPN Blocker)

Introduction

To enhance your store’s security, Blocky's Bot Killer (Proxy/VPN Blocker) feature allows you to restrict access from bots, proxies, and VPNs. This helps you protect your store from unwanted traffic and fraudulent activity.

How It Works

Blocky uses a service to analyze each visitor’s IP address.
The service evaluates factors such as ISP, location, known proxy/VPN usage, and more.
A security rating is assigned based on the services’s evaluation.
If a visitor’s IP score falls below a safe threshold, access is automatically blocked.

Conclusion

By enabling the Bot Killer, you can reduce the risk of abuse from proxies, VPNs, and known malicious sources—keeping your store more secure and trusted by real customers.
