Description
**Describe the issue**
So here is my two cent, AFAIK query complexity is related to DoS attack. So why here it says DDoS?
https://typegraphql.com/docs/complexity.html
**Are you able to make a PR that fix this?**
Not now TBF. My plate is too full :sweat_smile:.
**Additional context**
Here I am adding a couple of links, to make my point more clear:
- https://www.apollographql.com/blog/securing-your-graphql-api-from-malicious-queries
- https://www.npmjs.com/package/graphql-query-complexity
- https://www.npmjs.com/package/graphql-depth-limit-ts
These all refer to this as DoS
Contributor guide
Research direction
The report points to the complexity documentation at typegraphql.com/docs/complexity.html; start there and verify the terminology against the linked GraphQL query-complexity references. Done means the page consistently labels the issue as DoS rather than DDoS where appropriate.
