But how many of these will actually fend of a full-scale DDoS attack on your behalf without sending you a five- or six-digit bill for the trouble afterwards?

Haven’t researched all the options, but there must be some reason that DDoS targets all tend to use Cloudflare.

Probably their continued love of defending the worst parts of the internet that makes them feel at home there.

At some point this is just going to become their entire reputation and good luck renewing all of those enterprise accounts and attracting new staff.

People and organisations generally don’t want to be associated with this and don’t see it as some great moral cause they want to get behind.
