How would that solve anything? He would have to pay crazy Google CDN fees now:
https://cloud.google.com/cdn/pricing https://cloud.google.com/cdn/pricing
At 650 Gbps (81.25 GB/s) he's looking at $1.625/sec ($5850/hr) in cache egress fees alone.
I would go CloudFlare, which is flat rate.

- phihag_ 10y agoHe's not using Google CDN, but Google Project Shield: https://projectshield.withgoogle.com/public/ https://projectshield.withgoogle.com/public/ . Project Shield is a free service.
- boulos 10y agoYou're assuming that the flood is actually responded to, instead of being blocked. Also, in defense of our Cloud CDN fees, they're not crazy ;). Disclosure: I work on Google Cloud, so I'm after your money (but not via having you pay for egress to DDoSers).
