Even Brian Krebs doesn’t think Akamai kicks out or disables customers. In the article, he admits he is not paying Akamai. Should Akamai have kept protecting Krebs? Maybe. But I do not think anyone should pass judgement on Akamai - unless that person is willing to pick up the tab. (And some of the companies claiming they will pick up the tab are just hoping for PR, since they could not have actually protected Krebs.) -- TTFN, patrick
