How well is openwebtorrent.com protected against DDoS? #23

Hi,

I'm wondering how well the tracker is protected against large-scale attacks as many dApps/distributed systems are dependent on this central service; rendering them "non-decentral" in a way?

What I have in mind, in case this is an issue that has not already been addressed, is a huge amount of independently operated tracker instances working in eventually consistent federation.

ddos run... You need bash halt.
