and you really think that a single user uploading a handful of videos is capable of taking down reddit's servers? because that's what a DoS attack is. and if this is what you believe, you clearly don't understand the subject you're discussing.
I think the misunderstanding is coming from me going with the wikipedia & cloudflare definition of DoS attack, which includes intent. Image
And, in my opinion "the point is to screw with their bandwidth and their servers" sounds like you are intending to cause disruption (presumably by being part of a larger group of users doing the same thing), you might even call it a DDoS.
see, the way it's obvious that you're trolling with bad-faith arguments is how you've repeatedly ignored what I've told you and keep trying to twist what I've said into a definition that it very clearly doesn't fit.
i feel bad for you that you have to waste your time with silly games like this. i gave up with uploading videos to reddit about an hour after I started, realizing how pointless it was, and yet you keep up with this little charade, acting like parading your ignorance is somehow making a point.> you might even call it a DDoS.
only you are calling it that because, even though you read the definition which clearly states what i'm doing isn't anything close to it, you can't seem to grasp the difference.
