Stop using providers which charge a ridiculous price for bandwidth (like AWS). There are many excellent alternatives where a TB costs only a few dollars/euros.

Hetzner has the first 20 TB free and then charges 2 euros per TB.
Any sane provider with no DDoS protection will nullroute you on incoming DDoS, that's not Hetzner specific.

If you expect to get DDoSed, buy protection or go with OVH.

The problem wasn't the nullrouting, it was 'contact support to re-enable... and support isn't open until Monday'.
Kimsufi (OVH) if you need really really cheap and beefy dedicated servers, with pretty much no support. They are great for hobby projects.
Linode, DigitalOcean, OVH, Hetzner, and so on...
