  It’s actually insane that they got almost 400 million requests per second and still managed to stay online. I have to remind myself sometimes of how big Google really is.

  DDoS mitigation seems like a cat & mouse game but compared to industries such as piracy and cheat software, the companies are constantly winning?

    Only the big companies.

    Every few days, there’s a new victim. Literally yesterday, a major ddos campaign hit Spain sites.

    At some point, the whole Internet will move to the cloudflares, Google clouds, azures since they’re the last bits of stability, and directly self hosting would be near impossible without constant attacks.

      This is really unfortunate as these huge companies will have control over most of the internet and when they go down (which does happen) most of the Internet will go down too.

  I can't shake the feeling this is China testing the waters for cyber warfare...
