Top 10 largest sources of DDoS attacks: 2025 Q3
1. Indonesia
2. Thailand
3. Bangladesh
Vietnam and Singapore also make it into the top 10. The latter is a bit of an outlier being rich and having a small population.
- darkwater 10mo agoSo, guilty by default, right? We developed human rights and laws through centuries of debates, pain, suffer, revolutions, fights etc just to get mega-corps doing whatever they feel right, externalizing the trade-offs on innocent peoples.
- lysace 10mo agoNo, just pointing out that it's relatively likely that their ISP's IP ranges have been flagged as DDoS sources.
- darkwater 10mo agoI know, and I was pointing out that CF outsources the trade-offs of their solutions to innocent users.
- andyjohnson0 10mo agoSo what's to be done? Some people are being adversely (and probably unfairly, maybe even unjustly) affected by the actions of people that they share a geographic location with. I'm not convinced that many people desire that, but nobody much wants systematic disruption to a shared resource that has (perhaps regrettably) become economically and socially important, either. And, at its basic level, the net is geography: wires and data centres and peering points, as well as national laws, companies, agreements, etc. What's the better solution? I certainly don't know.
