that article is absolute rubbish. take with large pinch of salt, rockstar in hamster outfit type nonsense. 

$dayjob didn't lose any traffic during the period, some guys where affected because of the lottery of being on the same

Yes: 120 gigabits/second, primarily of DNS amplification traffic.

Still think it's optional to implement BCP38 pervasively?
