Addthis share widget being blocked?

I have a firewall rule to block traffic from not CA and US. It works awesome.


That is my only firewall rule.

Recently addthis/Facebook’s share windoid had a hiccup.

I guess addthis/Facebook was crawling from a different country. Maybe?
Waf is off
Security Level is medium
Browser Integrity Check is on

Any help is appreciated.

You could probably add an “And known bots - Off” like so

(not ip.geoip.country in {"US" "CA"} and not cf.client.bot)

Hopefully that would fix it; I’m not sure if CF’s geolocation method changed but all FB IPs should geolocate to their California office.

I see what your saying. The page was shared via addThis though. That muddies the situation. I do want to block bots still.

How do I know what rule blocked the capture? Perhaps it was a challenge and not a block.
