it would be amusing to me if this is not in fact true but was a plan given to a specific employee suspected of being a leaker, waiting for him to leak it as proof.

Using DNS to failover to another CDN is pretty much the only solution if the solution is not "build out your own global edge infrastructure". I was thinking more about this though and it has its own problems. You want a short TTL

proof of work originated to stop spam. But it’s a question of cost. If it costs less to bypass bot detection than the money made by the bot activity, then they’ll do it, whether captcha farms or doing proof of work calculations.
