What do you do to mitigate DDoS attacks? Prolexic? Cloudflare? Other?


HN does make use of Cloudflare apparently, I got several not loading messages which made mention of Cloudflare.


To elaborate, I think they began using Cloudflare just the other day, as a solution to the DDoS. I was able to get through by the time I checked it in the morning from home, but after getting to work I still couldn't access it for hours while the DNS change propagated.
