yes.
You are correct.
This is not a new thing.
But the difference here is with the (D)DOS. Customer has to pay for it. Not mixpanel. That is the concern I'm making.
It is huge
- equark 15y agoDoesn't seem huge. Most people pay for bandwidth. Standard web DOS attacks cost money too. Same thing with linking to S3. The fix is as it's always been, email your provider and explain the situation. Most likely they'll revert your usage. Presumably if it becomes a big problem they'll set up something like rate limiting by IP.
- arunoda 15y agoYes You might argue that. But the vendors should do some kind preventive mechanism on doing this. I don't know what. If they need to serve there customers well, they need to focus on that. What we need is a preventive mechanism and if they don't do this. This will be the next generation viruses. And extreamly dangerous.
