I pay US taxes and I don't want the cia.gov site to be on the same type of hardware as say Google just to be DDoS "proof".
They shouldn't be connected with a 33.6 modem but to ask all sites to upgrade everything to prevent DDoS is insane.
Who could afford to start a web site if they had to lay out all of that cost?
- chriserin 15y agoMight that be another advantage of cloud computing? To spread the cost of DDoS defense infrastructure across many websites?
- bxr 15y agoYou'd still have to pay for all the computing time to remain available during the attack. Its probably not worth it to try to stay up in that kind of storm.
