My blog is unavailable due to the hosting provider, #sourcehut, being heavily DDOSed. Like npub1kzk9pnwftlas9zt2kwmklw82anvtt05kck5qeey4f5thr4u2vr3slxk9tq (npub1kzk…k9tq) and also #hackernews
The only way to protect yourself against such attacks seems, those day, use #cloudfare.
Which raises an interesting question: with his distributed infrastructure, what would prevent Cloudfare itself from DDOSing every non-customers ?
What makes Cloudfare business different from a criminal racket?
