    We were getting DDoS’d by a bunch of South American IPs (mostly Brazilian) from maybe 18 hours ago.

      Were they residential IP addresses? I had this a couple weeks back. But it wasn’t just Brazil, constant hits from Argentina and few other countries. Tried different things but they were all unique residential addresses and hard to block, then set up challenge for the whole continent. Finally, it went down.

        Yeah, same story - the few I looked at looked like they were from consumer ISPs. We had ~7m requests from Brazil, ~900k from Argentina, and a little less from Ecuador, Colombia and Russia.
