Guy who ddosed my website last summer is back jfl

[the_deaf_judger]

This is kind of a self-dox.

So basically i host this chat thingy . And recently someone has been ddosing it(i know this is a ddos because the requests came from more than 20 IPs and they said they have a botnet) and that eventually brings down my home network. I use cloudflares "i am under attack!" mode and have configured fail2ban, but nothing works.
UPDATE: They said they wont stress my site if i pay them 25$ in monero or give me root access to the server, doing neither and seing what happens.
UPDATE 2: Thanks everyone! He attempted a ddos attack again, but most IPs where blocked and most things were cached, nothing went down. But this kid signed up to a bunch of newsletters with my email.
UPDATE 3: This guy started DDosing again, all the requests where blocked by my firewall but its still flooding my pipe

I got rid of them within a couple months, but my home internet was down for a while. There was a problem with my thing that allowed people to get the origin IP. I made a reddit post on this.

Now, this kid comes back. No peace for truecels. We are doomed to be tormented by script kiddie teenagers who impersonate us everywhere.
