Hello my IP is suddenly blocked (due to DDoS) and I no longer have any way of accessing the deployed site via my Wi-Fi. It’s very annoying that such a false positive occurs and there’s nothing you can do about it! I don’t want to upgrade to Pro at this point – I’m not ready for that yet. Is there a solution? Otherwise, I’ll have to look for alternatives where I can deploy also productively later on…
Hey @tobiasdelvo-6639, welcome to the Vercel Community 
DDoS protection false positives can happen sometimes, especially if you’re making a lot of requests during development or testing. You can try a few quick fixes, like accessing your site from a different network. Maybe a mobile hotspot or another WiFi connection?
Sometimes just waiting it out helps too, since these blocks are usually temporary and lift automatically. Clearing your browser cache and cookies for the site can also do the trick.
To avoid running into this in the future, try reducing the frequency of requests during development. It’s also better to use vercel dev for local development instead of constantly hitting the deployed site. And if you’re running automated tests, make sure they’re not unintentionally hammering your deployment.
