- klabb3 2y agoDDoS is arbitrary with any definition. What’s the difference between a weak server that can’t handle an influx of load vs an “attack”? The result is the same. It all depends on intent and coordination, which is better defined by lawyers than engineers. To some extent, you have to expect that anything with an open port 80 on the public internet is accessed by strangers. First because it’s the technical reality, but it’s also part of the principles of the web in some deeper philosophical sense.
