With an attack like that, you know the inbound IPs targeting you are already vulnerable, so know what you can do? You can turn them back on themselves to attack the attack.
This approach is not recommended by legal professionals.
- cft 11y agoAttacking them back involves DDoS, I.e. time, infrastructure and legality issues. This stops an attack instantly.

Morally right in an if-someone-tires-to-kill-you-kill-them-right-back way? Certainly legally wrong since most of the participants in these attacks are misconfigured "innocent" 3rd parties, not hostile entities themselves.
