minus-squaremisk@sopuli.xyzOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7arrow-down1·2 年前That’s still 2.5k fully saturated 400mbps connections. As far as I know this kind of approach wouldn’t work since you’d easily block them - you need craploads of bots all around the world for this to not be defeated by a smart firewall.
