Just ask some Cloud provider to put a datacenter on the island, and they can give them discounted kWh rates during the windy periods. Should be cheaper to run fibre for data to the mainland than the higher capacity power wires.

Hi,

Sorry about the bad experience. I did want to advise that the attacks are generally not against CloudFlare proper, but are generally attacks directed against client sites, and we are working on some network solutions to greatly reduce this problem in the very near future (testing and building out solutions now). While you are indeed correct in stating that the rest of the network is up when one datacenter is having an issue, we most certainly do realize that it is little consolation when any of your visitors hitting that datacenter are having a problem accessing your site.

so this is security camera footage from twitter's datacenter?
