It's a sad development, but inevitable. Eventually you can't discern malicious traffic and real user traffic, I'm pretty curious as to what will happen then

Proof of work "toll" for each request or session seems like a good option.

For everything except energy efficiency

Compromised devices can do work too, and it slows down everyone. Not sure it's the right solution.
