Ubergeek99··on The underground world of credit card network exploitation
Cloudflare has tools to prevent too many form submits. You can specify which page, how many submits and so on.

I found out about this when I had a problem of somebody running a script of trying different credit cards over a two hour window.

My payment processor told me I should prevent these types of things. So I investigated and never had this problem anymore.

Cloudflare is amazing at preventing all kinds of attacks. I love Cloudflare.

Ubergeek99··on Software bugs that cause real-world harm
But the biggest "real world harm" is that the mother is able to call her (the author). What kind of world we live in that schizophrenic parents can get ahold of us? That really is a big bug. Apple and Android should do something about that... before it's too late and irreversible harm is done.
