OVH recently received a 150gbps DDoS from the biggest ISP on Spain (Telefonica) not long after they deployed symmetric 300mbps to almost all of their domestic customers at a decent price - OVH had to divert traffic over two different routes to be able to even _filter_ all of the incoming traffic.

As those connections spread (and they will - if you have optic fiber coverage, the slowest you can get is symmetric 50mbps), things will only get funnier
