Whenever I see top level comments where people are saying "this is what you get for not going with X", I am more and more convinced that a competitor is doing this. I for one am not leaving Linode. I JUST recommended to several new clients to setup at Linode and I've already had to explain that server setup is halted because of this attack. Did I recommend moving away from Linode? Nope. Did I hang my head in shame or stutter when I delivered the news, feeling it would reflect poorly on me or Linode? Nope. I told my clients this is the best place for them and I stick by it. Just because there are scumbags specifically attacking your service right now, doesn't mean another service is better, or that your service is poor. It just means that hey, news flash, there are scumbags in the world.
