We are the 7th Google result for DiamWall, the DDOS mitigation company that betrayed Kiwifarms to protect criminal harassers and silence free speech. I believe the CEO himself just visited us to correct me.

Two brand new accounts commenting on an irrelevant almost three day old thread, responding to an old comment in the same broken English just minutes apart and acknowledging one another within minutes, in the same broken English.

I've removed the comment in question. Apologies to Hugo Carvalho, CEO of DiamWall, who is NOT a sexual harasser and whose company has three employees. None of which are female. I was simply making conversation with something I had seen elsewhere.

This does beg the question, though - why does DiamWall not employ women?

@carpathianflorist Do you reckon itโ€™s possible to use a botnet for DDOS protection?

You know how botnets have access to insane amounts of computing power? Can tools like that be used to keep something up, or is it only good for taking things down?

It's decentralized, and its power comes from it's fairly low demands on the zombie machines, thousands of bullshit requests a minute from ten thousand machines is not much for the zombies but impossible for a server to respond to without timing out legitimate requests. Filtering is high demand and best done with a level of centralization to not cause too much delay to the requesting machine. I dont think its possible or sensical, and also illegal which would be an issue for the website.

I figured the illegal bit, but since DDOS is such a prolific method of attack I supposed it wasnโ€™t really enforced.

Makes sense that distributing tasks to a big network would be harder than directing a big network to concentrate traffic.

It's not really enforced because it would require international enforcement. There may be more conspiratorial answers too, but the simpler explanation sates me.
