Blog Shutdowns: Attack from IPs Assigned to barackobama.com

Liberal blogs and Instapundit were quick to dismiss the theory that the latest round of blog shutdowns had anything to do with the Obama camp. At least one did.

Hah, you think this is bad just wait until this jackass gets elected with a democrat majority congress.

I've never been to a "blog," so know little about them.
Seems to me the DOS thing is a double edge sword. Does barackobama.com want to open that can of worms?

[Old Sarge]

Will this story be publicized?

Wait, that was on "Final Jepoardy" last light...

My blog has a simple graphic on it...and it was taken out yesterday for a while.

Here's the graphic:

Someone's not 'playing nice'. Then again, when have Marxists ever 'played nice'?

Excellent graphic!

I know Michelle Malkin and at least one other I visited Friday were not readable.

Total domination by Obamabots. Dissent is not allowed. They think themselves the Borg.

A DOS flood is different from filing complaints with Google to get blogs shut down as spam.

If there was a real DOS flood coming from an Obama website, it may qualify as a federal crime. May — it could be misconfigured tool designed to pull data from opponent websites to keep tabs on what they are saying.

The website (with a Free Republic mention, BTW) was taken down after it publicized the information that Illimois citizens are petitioning the state to have Obama’s birth certificate released.

Check this out:

Barack Obama’s supporters tricked Google and Blogger, the Google subsidiary that manages Blogspot, into denying me access to this blog since yesterday. They just let me back on. Obama supporters reported my blog as “spam”, i.e., as engaging in fraudulent activity that violates the firm’s terms of agreement, because I posted contrarimarii’s petition here. Raquel Okyay and Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs have covered this story and I appreciate their support.

We need to publish this to every MSM newspaper Letters and issue forum. Post to every craigslist politics listing as its picked up by googles spyders and will start to show up in searches. They flag it then repost it. Let’s inform America who is trying to shut down freedom of speach.

Do a google search on this and you will see its effectiveness.

Will this story be publicized?

In a word, no.

That petition is a baaaaaaaad idea.

That petition is a baaaaaaaad idea.

It may or may not be a bad idea- but this issue doesn't seem to be going away.
