Where exactly does the quoted text mention shady spam operations? It's about DDoS victims, not cybercriminals. >We are NOT a DDoS Mitigation Service. Yes, we have a lot of DDoS mitigation in place. No, this isn’t here so that you ca

You completely misunderstand, this is strictly different from a ban. This is like DDoSing someone after you banned them. The TTL tells DNS resolvers to cache the "localhost" result for 1 year, it's specifically an attempt to

How could you possibly compare that to > we may also wildcard your DNS to localhost and set the TTL on your zone out to a year This is going way beyond suspending a customer, this is an active attack by EasyDNS.

Judging by their ToS, I wouldn't be so sure that easyDNS has attorneys.

You approve of maliciously tampering with customer configs to punish them? I get suspending someone, I don't get "we may also wildcard your DNS to localhost and set the TTL on your zone out to a year"

Yeah, looks like $1 would've probably been enough fees for this transaction to be confirmed within a reasonable timeframe (less than 10 blocks, ~a few hours).

They overpaid big time, fees of approximately $33 would've been sufficient for the transaction to confirm just as fast.

It appears they overpaid by a factor of 20 or so. Anything beyond the first 0.003267426 (33 usd) or so was just charity.

I'm not saying they will, just saying they can . There's no magic coating on those cards making them particularly resistant to discoloration. Odds are the Apple card would be exactly like your other cards.

Do you work for Google? How do you know that using an Apple card would result in you getting banned for the use of a virtual card? E: Yes, I read the article.

"Poorly designed" may be subjective, but do you happen have any evidence to support your claim that Apple Card "scratches and stains too easily"?

This has nothing to do with the Apple Card. Google loves suspending Ads accounts for doing any changes to their profiles. I've had to go through this BS at least 5 times. Odds are this guy would've been banned no matter which card

You only need to claim a number if you want to receive calls, you can make calls from any number you'd like. FWIW I see lots of European countries that require you to provide an address, not many that actually require verification.

How could you possibly prove that he doesn't own those bitcoins? You can prove control, but not lack of ownership unless you just burn the coins.
