Arch Linux AUR Hit by Another DDoS Attack, Port 22 Access Disrupted (linuxiac.com)

The Arch Linux team has once again been forced to respond to a distributed denial-of-service attack targeting its AUR repository infrastructure. As a result, DDoS protection has been enabled for aur.archlinux.org to help mitigate the ongoing disruption.

While this measure helps keep the AUR website accessible, it has introduced a significant side effect: pushing to the AUR is currently not possible.

I already donate but I'll review my contribution and see if I can throw a few more euros their way.

Thanks for the explanation on truth in terms of mirrors, that helps me understand. I was offering server power but that might not be feasible or meaningful. And based on what you've said, it seems like the Disable focused warfare is the best approach.
