Bunny used Gcore in Armenia. Gcore themselves got hacked, not Bunny. Bunny was just an affected downstream, in only one of their POPs.

The title is heavily misleading.

It's not really misleading. A lot of people here use Bunny and this is a relevant security incident. It's not a major failing but rather a "hey shit happened come make sure if it applies to you that you respond in kind".

NGL it's the exact wording I'd personally like to see from a product that had an infra provider have an incident just so that I can mentally tune in enough to figure out if I need to care.

Do I need to post the Rickover responsibility copypasta again? Simply put service providers own their outsourcing decisions and those consequences. Getting popped by shitty hosting services is a risk of using those services.

Bunny is doing the right thing here and owning it.
