Anyway, I think that most servers and websites nowadays either come with the DDoS protection or you can buy it from the hosting company. It's pretty important feature to have if you're running a popular website or anything like e-commerce. Security is crucial. I have never personally been attacked by the DDoS but I do know a few that got their IP leaked and people messed with it. It got really bad and to the point where he had to call his ISP and beg them to change his address.
