  I think they have a LOT to learn about how the internet ‘works’ as well as how the internet works.

    Thing is, for the average consumer of the internet, they have no real concept what’s going on behind the webpage with the fancy graphics they happen to be looking at. When I try to explain to them that bots comprise conservatively 40-50% of all internet traffic which is about ~2 zettabytes per 24 hour period, they still don’t get it. And really, they don’t have to, that’s the job of sysadmin.

    Bro. AWS can do jack shit, that’s not how it works. You might as well call Toyota next time you see a Camry speeding. All you’re going to do is annoy people who in no way can help you with a problem that is your responsibility. I can guarantee they’ll tell you you should use private VPCs and entrypoints with SG, which is what every AWS tutorial starts out by telling you.

    Port scanning in and of itself is not really abuse.

    Being a script kiddie that’s abusing AWS abuse report process on the other hand…
