Don't know who could or would possibly pay these prices but we're out for sure. I just find it soooooo hypocritical that cloudflare actively protects the very DDOS / Booter services that were being used to order DDOS hits against our customer networks in the first place. They have this to state: https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/ddos/ddos-attack-tools/ddos-booter-ip-s… > > Why are booter services hard to trace? > > The person buying these criminal services uses a frontend website for > payment, and instructions relating to the attack.

And a quick google shows up first result, and a cloudflare protected site: https://str3ssed.co Ugh.

But if you start encoding the BGP protocol data in the TLS session as HTTP so you can tunnel it over a shared 443 port to some distant endpoint, and even traverse HTTP proxies, then it would look like a joke. Or in the DoH case, would make you wish it was a joke. Bjørn

by Sean Donelan 24 Oct '19

Unlike the last California public safety power shut-offs (PG&E, SoCal Edison, SDG&E), the FCC has decided to activate its Disaster Information Reporting System this time. DIRS is a voluntary reporting method for wireline, wireless, broadcast, cable, and VOIP providers. https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-19-1073A1.pdf CALIFORNIA: Alpine, Amador, Butte, Calaveras, El Dorado, Napa, Nevada, Orange, Placer, San Diego, San Mateo, Sierra, Sonoma, and Tehama Reports from participating communications providers are requested at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, October 25, 2019, and every day after that by 10:00 a.m. until DIRS is deactivated.

Russian government’s disconnection test
by Scott Weeks 24 Oct '19

24 Oct '19

Anyone got any technical info on how Russia plans to execute a disconnection test of the internet? I am starting to see this on web sites again: https://slate.com/technology/2019/10/russia-runet-disconnection-domestic-in… and started wondering how they plan to do that? DNS? firewalls? Shut off optics on fiber? Stop satellite comms? What about microwave? https://aviatnetworks.com/solutions/ip-mpls-microwave "Russia plans to execute a so-called disconnection test of the internet sometime in October—right ahead of Nov. 1, when a new law about domestic internet kicks into gear. Russia plans to then repeat this test at least once a year." "For one, “equipment is being installed on the networks of major telecom operators,” Alexander Zharov, head of Roskomnadzor, told reporters." scott

I was under the impression you had to need them in order to hold onto them?
