The servers have been flakely lately. We’ve been hit by numerous denial-of-service attacks, or at least attempts to deny our service.

The whole interwebs have been experiencing a number of attacks these past couple of months. Last month, Twitter and Facebook were taken down for a few momments, with Google also getting hit. The attacks have mostly come from two places, the Peoples Republic of China People’s Liberation Army, and North Korea.

Right now, if you were doing packet analysis, you’d see the ‘Net is becoming full of rogue ICMPs looking for a reply.

Thanks, I was concerned it might be on my end.
I’m a little relieved, but still concerned now
about the possible cause... dang
