Has the internet jihad against FR started?
10/31/2007 | Philistone

Posted on 10/31/2007 9:52:42 AM PDT by Philistone

A thread yesterday talked about how the jihadis were going to attack websites of those who stood in the way of jihad.

FR was mentioned.

This morning, I'm starting to get a lot of "502" errors here.

If I find the link from yesterday I'll post it below.

Anyone else having this problem?

What is possibly happening is the 'jihadists' are spamming the IP. Since the connections have to make a number of 'hops' to the servers, it's possible they are tying up a lot of bandwidth.

This is a pretty minor league way to tie up a website.

Yes, but the second (or third) click has been successful.

Or third or fourth.
