I really dont like this centralization of the internet into a few gigantic companies having every site under their wings. And then something goes wrong and millions of web sites are affected.

It also gives these companies the power to shut down any of their user sites.

On the other hand, handling a ddos attack is hardly possible without them these days.

AFAIK Anubis is a bot checker and not a caching service.

Anubis doesn’t protect against a large volume of legitimate traffic, which is what the hug of death is.
