Thanks.. Trying to understand the issue bit better if you can bear with me..

Let's say you manage to install some cloudfare equivalent in your Vps so your hands are clean. That still exposes the provider systems up to that point, eating up resources?

Or they'll still knock you off and ban your IP at the first point of entry itself..

Cos where that leads us is subscribing to cloudfare type service almost becomes inevitable.. You can't get around it with some free software running in your own box.
