Opened a Hostinger ticket

I did, #4839217. Auto-reply said "high volume, 24-48 hours." That was 18 hours ago. Will update if they say anything useful.

For now: WAF disabled, CPU stable at 31%, site loads. Not ideal security posture but better than down.

airgapped, encrypted, faraday'd, still worried

Cloudflare WAF rules can cover the gap temporarily. I have a standard set for WordPress in Lyon, blocks 90% of the noise Wordfence WAF would catch. Not as granular but buys time.

Hostinger will fix this or lose the mid-market. They're not stupid, just moving fast.
