A large number of site went down today when a large DNS was attacked. I know several of the companies we partner with were affected.

They brought it down because Trump dominates Social Media.

Social Media business model is busted and will be defunct the first quarter of next year. Every player will suffer great losses. If you're still holding then I'll only laugh at you.

Yesterday, Comcast in Silicon Valley was crawling at &lt& 1Mbps speeds, and many times not working at all. It did not improve until sometime between 18:00 and 22:00 last night. Anyone else affected?

Strangely, the DDOS/DNS stuff I have not noticed at all.

Looks like half the internet went down in response to armed thugs outside the Ecuadorian embassy in GB. World is on notice, don't fuck with Assange.

Anyone else want to project responsible party onto this at this hour? Russia? Iran? Trump supporters? Clinton false flag?

The Internet is being attacked by your refrigerator, printer and DVR.

Who the fuck connects their refrigerator, printer, or DVR to the internet?

All the breitbart trolls. They can't leave the basement, so it's all about sustainability in lifestyle choices. Organization is key. Just sayin'.

Notice how they "have no idea who did it".
Hillary's email leak?
THE RUSSIANS DID IT.
That must have come out 45 minutes after the first batch was released.

For those non IT-savvy ppl on here. It's almost impossible to trace the source of a hack. And EVEN if you got lucky and there was a forensic trace, it would take days or weeks to be absolutely sure.

Just read this on Hacker News:

Early October, the developer of the malware publically released the source code of Mirai, which is designed to scan for IoT devices – mostly routers, cameras, and DVRs – that are still using their DEFAULT passwords...

Un-fucking-believable
