    It’s the reason I set up cloudflare in the first place, so yeah. I was getting SYN flood-ed to the point that my router would just crash almost immediately, and after rebooting it the attack would resume after a minute or two.

        It’s a bit like saying “having a password on your account is fearmongering, why would anyone try to access your data”.

        It’s only fearmongering until you get attacked, and it’s already too late when you do. Better to be proactive.
