“DDoSed”
He complains about outgoing traffic of 4GB/day. On a server. In 2022.
If this is an issue he should not be hosting Go modules on his own servers.

I really really don't get the issue.
Is he io bound? Is there no reasonable way for git hosting services to actually cache git checkouts?
DDoS / DoS should only be used, in my opinion, when the server goes down complelty not if it has a little bit of load and i still haven't seen anything which indicates that this is a real issue?
And i don't want to come across negativly, i just don't get the issue.
What if your website hosted 100 Go modules and it scales linearly, that's 400GB, still not a problem? What if every programming language did that?
I don't really understand how that's not an issue. Sure it's not a big deal, if just one service does that, but it's still something that should be fixed. If you are Google it should be expected that this fix is not taking over a year.
