Godaddy has been getting attacked a lot recently as well. Who is likely behind attacking servers, whether other server companies or governments?

- hehheh 10y agoGoDaddy, among others, host servers that are a major source of DDoS attacks. I am not sad that they are also victims.
- mikebutash 10y agoWhen you are the dns root record and in many cases hosting too for some 60-70 million domains, someone in the internet is wanting to attack someone at godaddy all the time. There isn't a time they aren't being attacked somehow in all reality, and I'd presume it's much the same for Linode. The means of really combating a ddos is costly and extensive, this is why most use a service like prolexic or silverline, and typically with some massive infrastructures that comes with it. Anything less than n-by 40gb disposable internet pipes, preferably regional as you are, you can/will be smited at will.
