Most people have probably heard about the Internet of Things (IoT) by now and how these devices are constantly drafted for your friendly neighborhood botnet. My little place on the interweb is currently gaining popularity among my DVR based visitors. You know the type: running a public telnet service, using hard coded accounts and may occasionally be seen sporting an additional backdoor on port 31337.

These bots are posing as Googlebot, but they are effortless to identify due to their use of the old and largely abandoned HTTP 1.0 protocol.
