Title: Does BrightData Rotating IP Really Help with Blocking and Captchas?
Hey folks,
Been using brightdata rotating ip for a while now, and honestly, it’s been a mixed bag.
On one hand, the IP switches *do* help avoid bans when scraping aggressively. But on the other, I still run into captchas occasionally—especially on sites like Cloudflare-protected ones.
Anyone else notice this? Like, is there a sweet spot for request timing or something? Or am I just doing it wrong lol.
Also, how reliable is it for long-term data collection? I’ve had a few drops in success rates, but not sure if it’s my setup or brightdata rotating ip acting up.
Keen to hear your experiences!
Cheers.
