> Dude, I’ve used 180 TB of traffic in one month on a 16$/mo server, and still, no throttling. But legitimately using lots of bandwidth isn't the same as a DoS attack. Try and remember that bandwidth isn't the only resourc

If you read the fine print of the ones with "no bandwidth costs" you'll find that service becomes throttled after a certain level of usage. These are businesses, they have to make money to operate, they're not in this fo

Agreed in part, however TLS Tokens and Keep alive aren't specific to this vendor... it's something that the author should be doing anyway. If they were to self host rather than contract out the underlying service upon which they d

Shame on them for not giving notice and a proper explanation of the change. They were vastly under reporting the cost of providing the service. Consider that they are a business. Shame on you for not using resumable TLS sessions/Keep a

You seem to have confused orders fulfilled by Amazon, and people selling products on their platform as third party sellers. You don't state which country your in, or answer the question someone asked of you regarding the potential affi

Ergodox-ez.com sure make a big deal about being 'open source', yet I can't find a schematic, PCB design or anything related to this on their site. Perhaps I'm missing something? What I do see is they use an open source f

You've been shilling in this thread, and avoided answering the question "are you affiliated with them?"
