Imagine you lost your job. So you are here enjoying creating and hosting your hobby projects in theses services. Now, suddenly one fine morning you get slapped with $104K bill because someone decided to randomly ddos your one page dog lover website.

Now, who in the would would be thinking of having ddos protection for their hobby project? This is just absurd thinking.

Reading this article made me realise not to use these services for good. $5000 is a lot man.. It's not that we make money out of thin air.
