Even people that are not attack magnets gets ddos attacks these days - piss on someone's food (literally), and you'll get an attack (Image)

I’m glad I don’t have to pay for DDoS protection I don’t need. Why should I subsidise it for all the cunts that run attack magnets.

Cloudflare doesn't even have a proper anti-ddos, their network capacity just allows attacks to happen without too much trouble.

I don't like being billed for DDoS protection. It's not expensive but I still don't like to. I guess their DDoS hardware was choking unlike Cloudflare's...

Guess I will stick to Hetzner as I do not like DDoS Protection being an extra. Ofc it is fine for them to charge for though.

As a customer I'd rather use OVH, and see a price increase now and then when there's a legit reason for it (exchange rate was a legit reason, introduction of ddos protection as well, and RAM/SSD prici

Plus cloudflare operates in the bulkest of the bulk possible as they are specialized in ddos and security , so they have good deals and capacity to handle attacks . We are using paid versions and I a

Now the price ddos protection for 1 gigabit machines would be 5 euro, so my total cost would become 14998 euro per month, or 539928 euro over a 3 year period.

correct? I mean one time because they include DDoS protection, second time for the EU <-> GBP, now to increare the DDoS protection power, and tomorrow? You say me that they are cheaper

Btw, how much do you/seflow charge for 1+Tb Anti-DDOS protection? Less than OVH? And you offer the option to rent dedis without A-DDOS protection? Just interested.

I really do dislike DDOS mitigation as an extra, in this day and age DDOS protection should be fairly standard, at least some level of it.

Cloudflare's "DDoS protection" only protects 80, 8080, 8880, 2052, 2082, 2086, 2095, 443, 2053, 2083, 2087, 2096 and 8443 - anything else (such as ddosing your mail infrastructure) w

Interesting to contrast that with how Cloudflare are now able to offer unmetered DDOS mitigation https://blog.cloudflare.com/no-scrubs-architecture-unmetered-mitigation/

For the sake of fairness: OVH expressly mentions that current clients can go up to 12 more months at the current price (i.e. without the added anti-ddos fee). Translation of the relevant part: Existin

What about hetzner adding free anti-ddos to everything? (Image)

(Yeah, I know that their DDoS mitigation is not really comparable to what OVH or maybe seFlow do.)

Well I'm glad my $2.70 cent ovh game vps isn't going to cost me anymore money. On the bright side their ddos protection doesn't have a choking point of 20g anymore. They switched out to their shield a
