Google has implemented a system to prevent abuse of its services by blocking IP addresses that make an excessive number of requests within a short period. This move is aimed at preventing malicious activities such as brute-force login attempts and automated script executions.
When an IP address exceeds the allowed threshold, it is temporarily blocked from accessing Google’s services for a specified duration. The exact threshold for this measure varies depending on the type and location of the user.
This system aims to maintain the integrity of Google’s services while preventing abuse by malicious actors. By limiting excessive requests, Google can reduce the risk of unauthorized access and protect its users’ data.
