Briefing
- DataDome: DataDome published a customer story showing how tire retailer 1001Pneus used its anti-bot platform to stop competitor price scrapers hiding behind residential IP addresses.
Why it matters
This case study illustrates a common challenge in e-commerce: competitors scraping pricing data from behind residential IPs to undercut margins. For practitioners, it highlights that residential proxy networks are a growing vector for scraping and that anti-bot solutions must differentiate between legitimate users and scrapers even when IP reputation is clean. The 50-person team being freed from bot firefighting also underscores the operational cost of manual blocking.
