Since it is not designed for individual selfhosters, I’m wondering if any groups are actively attempting to run it together? Idea sounds cool, but I’m wondering about practical execution.
Holy setup batman. Was thinking it was going to be another container I spin up, but it’s enabling kernel modules, needs IOMMU, needs a ton of setup and then it looks like you still have to compile it? For now at least that’s above my needs
Doesn’t really make sense for self hosting. Filtering the traffic is pointless if the traffic just completely overwhelms your internet.
Also generally self hosters aren’t running bgp with their own asn.
You may want to change the title and include the word “protection”…
I was about to start my lucrative career in DDoS but, alas, I’ve been thwarted.
Seems like this system relies on defending from well-defined entrypoints to the network. I’m not sure how a group of enthusiasts could use this unless they centralize their systems.
Imagine a federated system that allows everyone to host this and everyone can vote on a designated target
Ticketmaster is being a dick? Vote! Ticketmaster is now ddossed until it makes hard changes to its policies and brings prices down to like 10% of what it is today
Boeing continues to focus on money only, not safety? Ddos until it changes
The Cheeto is murdering innocent people again? The entire world will ddos everything US until he’s removed.
I know this won’t ever happen, but I see this as potentially useful in making the world a better place for everyone
it’s called Gatekeeper, and you think it’s a project hosted on github for DDoSing people?
Not sure if this is a joke, but if not this software is to help protect *against* ddos attacks, not for running them 😂
The title also had me confused.
