Usually the simplest solution is for people to grow tf up... but I'm kinda hopeless about that.
Normally we'd recommend remote DDoS protection service, but too bad there's no Hong Kong location.
Thus, null route and call it a day?

Not the first time I hear this. Does someone targets such providers on purpose?
You a spastic with a multiple personality disorder?
That is a bad situation for sure.
But also are positive! Both sides. Companies there and Datacenters will be obligated to take more actions to protect their networks against DDoS Attacks.
This can impact you and everyone, is right. But this also will show and force Datacenters, ISPs to understand the importance of working in a good solution at least a "solid" solutions against DDoS Attacks and provide them to their customers.
That's why all Datacenters and ISPs in Hong Kong should pay attention against such attacks and working in a solution for that. Of course there no 100% protection against all attacks. But we saw some companies that still without any DDoS Protection for their customers.
Yes, I heard that It all started when a competing VPS and VPN provider became envious of YXVM and other Hong Kong-optimized routing providers. In a Telegram group, they pressured YXVM to give up access to certain Hong Kong optimized routes. Even after YXVM withdrew part of its optimized network, this rival continued launching DDoS attacks. Eventually, YXVM retaliated with its own DDoS attacks, and the situation escalated into chaos. More and more ASNs got affected and became targets. Simply put — it was all driven by profit.
Yes, you're right, but I am wondering how many cheap providers would survice in this battle, and looks like budget-friendly VPS offerings could dry up soon.
Claw recently pulled back its optimized HK lines — it's unclear if they had prior insight.
Some people want to be "they", but that's the first singular "we".
Some people are mentally ill.
edit: I mean a lot nowadays
Maybe this is a bit naive from me, I must ask: how intense are these attacks? My racknerd VPN was being bombarded 24/7 by AI crawlers, but adding a geoblock filter to nginx was enough to fend them off.
That's not a real ddos
GSL has been suffering recently in the APAC region.
