And you¹d be correct (about SSDP). ;-)

It's interesting that they'd call about DNS amplification... You don't
typically see DNS amplified floods coming from home ISPs. I would imagine
SSDP amplification is a far greater issue for any home ISP.

I know. It seems odd, doesn't it?

They're actually suspending people's accounts for DNS amplification. My
aunt got a call about it tonight. I had already firewalled that off on
her
router before they called, but they're doing it. There's more that they
could do I'm sure, but they're doing it. Maybe it's flooding their
upstream
causing other service issues.... but they're doing it.

So many others aren't doing much at all.
