Ask HN: Do You Block DigitalOcean?

I have at least half their subnets blacklisted at this point. They seem to host a lot of bot traffic, port scans, and other generally unsavoury characters.

Is this the wrong approach? A losing battle of whack-a-mole?

FWIW I get a not-insignificant amount of malicious traffic from AWS, Azure, and Google but I view these providers as "too big to block" - I can't blacklist large swaths of their IP space without breaking the Internet.
