> DNS... Not really sure what to make of this one. You only have to think back a couple of weeks to recall the DDos that took down Dyn: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12759697 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12759697 DDos attacks DNS servers are pretty common, not least because a lot of hosting companies regard DNS as low priority. I have an interest in Amazon's DNS setup, as I use it to provide my own git-based DNS hosting <https://dns-api.com> https://dns-api.com> so I'll be curious to see how this works in practice myself.
