[JIRA] [core] (JENKINS-21033) User-Agent "Java/" causes Jenkins requests to be considered malware

[dan...@beckweb.net (JIRA)]

Daniel Beck commented on JENKINS-21033 User-Agent "Java/<java version>" causes Jenkins requests to be considered malware Reference: http://www.umbrellastudio.com/how-to/block-java-user-agents/ Bots with a well-defined purpose will typically identify themselves with a unique name. These Java user-agents are either not interested in identifying their purpose or not ready to publish their name and take ownership of the crawling activities. Both cases are a waste of bandwidth. Test your new application on someone else’s website. Play with your shady crawler on someone else’s website. Come back when you are willing to identify yourself. (Further references cannot hurt if you know some!)
