      It’s just kinda sounded like you’re trying to deny service of their bandwidth and servers.

        and you really think that a single user uploading a handful of videos is capable of taking down reddit’s servers? because that’s what a DoS attack is. and if this is what you believe, you clearly don’t understand the subject you’re discussing.

          I think the misunderstanding is coming from me going with the wikipedia & cloudflare definition of DoS attack, which includes intent. Image

          And, in my opinion “the point is to screw with their bandwidth and their servers” sounds like you are intending to cause disruption (presumably by being part of a larger group of users doing the same thing), you might even call it a DDoS.
