not sure who needs to know this but Google has updated it’s list of valid Googlebot IPs. I first read about here <https://bsky.app/profile/tentaclequing.bsky.social/post/3liwsyym2b22a>
 
Googlebot slowdown alert
 
Many websites are experiencing massive server response times for Googlebot (up to 9000ms ☠), causing crawl activity to drop.
 
The likely reason? Google updated their IP addresses for crawling on Feb 4th 2025, but a few CDNs haven't caught up yet.
