[tor-relays] DDOS

[Green Dream]

I have relays on Digital Ocean as well, and occasionally get the same
emails. Notice the contradiction in the email:

"Once the attack subsides, networking will be automatically
reestablished to your droplet. The networking restriction is in place
for three hours and then removed."

Which one is it? Do you automatically reconnect my node when the attack
subsides, or do you just wait three hours? (It's always the latter.)

"Please note that we take this measure only as a last resort when other
filtering, routing, and network configuration changes have not been
effective in routing around the DDoS attack."

That seems to be disingenuous as well. They have never, ever done anything
other than shut of my node for 3 hours. Requests for more information about
the nature of the attack go unanswered.
