Why are there so many visits from Ashburn in my store analytics?

The data centers in Ashburn and Council Bluffs have also been verified to be Shopify Bots performing “monitoring” and also “speed tests” for Shopify analysis. I confirmed this with Support yesterday. Super awesome that the very platform that we use is skewing our sessions that impact conversion. SMH. These data centers account for nearly 15% of my inbound traffic YTD.
