    No I would very much like to punch the cunt in the face though.

    If it's the same dick, then he will be dickish again and the 'Don't be a dick" rule will do the rest.

    Yeah, I heard Vultr is down...

    First time I've had downtime with VULTR in awhile.

    Would be interesting to know how large... Never seen an attack that saturated their network before.

    @zeitgeist I've got confirmation from Choopa. Just open a ticket.

    Yep.

    "Hello,

    We were targeted by an unusually large and sudden (no ramp up period) ddos attack, and our systems reacted quickly to mitigate the attack but not without some impact. "

    The scary thing about DDoS is that it is apparently getting worse and there is no full proof defense. Even massive amounts of bandwidth capacity is no defense because the attacks are getting bigger.

    Sounds like it is pretty easy to do as well. The arrests are often just one or 2 guys running it out their basements.

    Telia had issues in NYC this morning due to 'an abnormal traffic profile causing congestion'..

    Quite unfortunate, hopefully everyone is fully restored and back online at this point.

    It's a very interesting statement. It's "not network related", but something is " targeting network gear". Shouldn't network gear be network related, at the very least by virtue of its name?

    Hey pal, maybe next time you ban evade, don't use the same anime character as a profile picture.

    and don't make it so obvious by putting the word "senpai" all over your profile. EDIT: banned

    That was the attack on Choopa/Reliablesite.

    Probably pretty big to take down the whole datacenter although that seems to be the new normal now a days.

    Seems that way, yep.

    Looks like some reliablesite subnets have went off the BGP table. Some other downstreams in Choopa's facility seem to be up and running through.

    That is the turning point I think. When upstream can no longer just sell you more pipe to handle it, they finally have to start thinking hardcore about protecting the product they've sold before people just say "well I can't use it so what good is it to me?"

    It had to get worse before it got better, and I think that's exactly what the next 3-5 years will be.

    Apparently OVH also got hit yesterday.
