so, if the site to which a dns entry points suffers a ddos, everydns will no longer serve the domain. i hope they apply this policy even handedly to all sufferers of ddos.
Given "These attacks have, and future attacks would, threaten the stability of the EveryDNS.net infrastructure, which enables access to almost 500,000 other websites." I'd say they had DOS issues with their nameservers. They can't be expected to let their other domains go down in efforts to protect a single domain.
I'm guessing they weathered the problem somewhat, as they actually gave 24h notice. However, excessive loads and constant monitoring and protective measures on a free service would definitely be something a company would want to stop.
