Distributed DoS[edit]
See also: October 2016 Dyn cyberattack, IP address spoofing, and Hop (networking)
A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) is a cyber-attack where the perpetrator uses more than one, often thousands of, unique IP addresses. The scale of DDoS attacks has continued to rise over recent years, even reaching over 1Tbit/s.[7]

Is the US government attacking DRUDGE REPORT?

Biggest DDoS since site’s inception. VERY suspicious routing [and timing].

Most IT support professionals in India and Pakistan would suggest that you check to see if your computer is plugged in, and if so, try a reboot. If that doesn’t work, you should consider moving up to a higher priced model which includes auto-plug check and reboot features.

It’s back up. It was down for awhile. Notice that there are currently no images posted on the site.
