Hi! I wonder what your policy is with regard to incoming DDoS network attacks?
- Will you try to filter the traffic based on heuristics, or just null route the affected dest IP(s)?
- What happens to my network traffic bill when somebody launches a DNS amplication attack against my VPS?
Cheers!

We do not bill for inbound bandwidth so that shouldn’t be an issue.
I’m also curious about the end effects of a possible DDOS attack…
If your droplet experiences a DDoS that might affect the hypervisor it is on (and ultimately other clients), the droplet will be shutdown and you will be notified.
