Analytics.js 2.0 is fully backward compatible with Analytics.js Classic. To upgrade your sources, follow the manual upgrade steps below, or see the schedule for automatic migration. As with all upgrades, Segment recommends that you start development on a non-production source to test the upgrade process and outcome, prior to upgrading your production sources.

Segment has a special de-duplication service that sits just behind the `api.segment.com` endpoint, and attempts to drop duplicate data. However, that de-duplication service has to hold the entire set of events in memory in order to know whether or not it has seen that event already. Segment stores 24 hours worth of event `message_id`s. This means Segment can de-duplicate any data that appears within a 24 hour rolling window.

If you stumbled onto this page by accident and don't know what a bot is or are just curious to learn more, the following Wikipedia article provides an awesome summary: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet\_bot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_bot).

Surprisingly, more than half of all web traffic is made up of bots. While a fraction of them are good bots with a regulated pattern, and therefore beneficial to all online businesses, the majority of them have malicious intents and are mostly unregulated.

**Handle the filtering at a destination-level:**some of our destination partners, [like Mixpanel](https://help.mixpanel.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004567946-Exclude-Bot-Activity-Web-JavaScript-), filter bots automatically. Whereas others [such as Hubspot](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/getting-started-with-hubspot-v2/how-to-filter-out-traffic-from-your-website-analytics) allow you to set up bot filtering manually. The advantage of filtering bots at a destination level is that it allows you to implement a robust, easy-to-maintain solution. However, as it pertains to Segment, the downside is that bot traffic will _still_ make it to Segment, [affecting your MTU count.](https://segment.com/docs/guides/usage-and-billing/mtus-and-throughput/#how-does-segment-calculate-mtus)

**Write custom logic that suppresses bot activity from being sent to Segment:** if you want to prevent bot traffic from making it to Segment in the first place, another option is to write your own custom code. The logic, in pseudo-code, would look something like this if you know a particular characteristic of the bot traffic to filter out, such as the userAgent:

The benefit here of course is that you would be able to limit the impact that bots have on your MTU count. However, on the flip side, it's much harder to implement and maintain a custom filter.

As a matter of policy, we typically do not provide refunds for bot-related MTU spikes, as bot traffic is out of our control. However for extenuating circumstances, [you can petition for a refund](https://segment.com/contact/billing), assuming you're able to provide proof of the bot's effect.
