Is CloudFlare able to filter Layer 7 these days? I was under the

There have been a lot of rumors about this attack. Some say
reflection, others say Layer 7, others say .. other stuff. If it is
Layer 7, how are you going to ‘step in front of the cannon’? Would
you just pass through all the traffic?
I realize Matthew is always happy for publicity (hell, the whole
planet is aware of that). But if your system cannot actually do the
required task, I’m not sure your company should give you credit for
offering a service the user cannot use.

Does being a victim of a DDoS constitute a breach of AUP?
