Changelog

Major user-visible changes only. Bug fixes and infra work are tracked internally.

2026-05 — Bot Shield consolidation

• Pricing alignment with Sprint 2-E. Free now includes 50 bot blocks/mo (up from 10). Grow now includes 500 bot blocks/mo (up from 100). Dispute evidence is now a Scale feature (was Max-only).
• Bot Shield Hub. The six Bot Shield modules (Access Control, Visitor Analytics, Custom Rules, Fraud Orders, Disputes, Network Intelligence) now live under a single Bot Shield nav entry with a hub page. Replaces the previous flat 12-item nav.
• Custom block page editor. Wired the existing block-page editor to /apps/soptim/blocked — your branded message now actually shows to blocked visitors.
• iCloud Private Relay detection. Apple's relay egress IPs are synced weekly; geo-blocked visitors are no longer accidentally blocked because of Apple's privacy feature.
• Admin bypass cookie. 24h HMAC-signed cookie lets you unblock yourself without disabling protection.
• Visitor Analytics CSV export. Per-tier row caps, hashed IPs.
