I read the concern more as "what do you do to stop someone from cURLing an .iso a million times from someone's S3 account".

I'm not too sure what you mean here.

In terms of DOS'ing our services, we limit disk space usage per job, and are working on bandwidth limitations (this is a weakness, but for now we'll just ban abusers and work with those with legit needs)

Not DOSing your services, using your services to DOS others.

Or things like using stolen credit cards to do Bitcoin mining.

Every services provider will deal with this.

We have plans but ultimately won't really know until we're in the thick of it.

Our plans though are to limit bandwidth and ban abusers. We'll work with Stripe's Radar platform to reduce the stolen credit card fraud.
