If you’re coding it yourself, use `requests` with `time.sleep()` and rotate IPs.

Or save yourself the headache and use a service like Zenscrape.

API is the *official* way, but if you’re scraping:

- Residential proxies
- Randomized intervals
- Don’t hit the same endpoint repeatedly

Otherwise, enjoy your banhammer.
