Without going through a CDN, is there any way to protect public/client facing links created with `uplink share --url`? Are they protected in some way by default? I know the project bandwidth limit can be set to limit costs, but reaching that limit from a denial of service attack is clearly not a solution to the denial of service attack itself. In my particular use case, each user will be given their own ephemeral link(s) to access the prefix(es) that they’re authorized to access, so limiting a link to only a handful of IPs would be perfectly reasonable, but I can’t find any documentation discussing what sort of protections can be enabled or are enabled by default.
