Exactly. DoS Arrest was using BGP anycast for DDoS mitigation long before CloudFlare even existed. We had customers on their service back in 2008.
I'm somewhat skeptical of CloudFlare's low-cost approach to DDoS mitigation. Going for volume on low MRC clients means that you have a lot of potential targets on your network. And attacks against any one customer can always impact every other customer, which puts you constantly at risk, even if you yourself are not attacked all that often.
