Twitter becomes interrupted, what a bleak future! \sarc
If sites like PayPal and Amazon are affected, that could be major economic disruption.
Unfortunately, legitimate businesses were affected too.
I work for an internet retailer. Our shipping and supply management tool is in the cloud and affiliated with DYS. There were two times today where we couldn’t access our shipping info. That shuts us down. Paypal went down too and that really puts a dent in multitudes of companies.
Luckily today it was only two times for us and each time it was back up within an hour. But a sustained DoS could really cripple the business world.
