You have the power to not host your own infrastructure on aws and behind cloudflare, or in the case of an employer you have the power to fight against the voices arguing for the unsustainable status quo.

If you need DDoS mitigation then you essentially need to rely on a third party. Every third party will have inevitable downtime. For many it’s just whether you’d prefer to be down while everyone else is down or not.

If the internet was always a nice place we wouldn't need Cloudflare and similar :(
