DDoS Attack Confirmed

www.digitalattackmap.com - Click on Canada. Suffering from about 30-50Gb/s of malicious bandwidth since yesterday evening. Only about 4Gb/s originate from China. The rest has no source IP. This is only the top 2% of reported attack data.

Looking at that map, it looks like the United Kingdom has it worse than the United States

Keep in mind that this map is just a momentary impression. A datacenter in the UK may be suffering now. Tomorrow it may be a center in the US.

In a serious note this post is spot on. Some people think that they just can stop it straight away..... It takes times and it's being investigated. Look at what happened with psn.

Anything is possible, ppl need to remember a lot of US Tech Companies did move assets to China for cheaper labor.

Even YoshiP talked about this when they were making the Chinese Version of XIV. Cyber Cafes are very popular in China and most of them sadly have older PCs and why they had to take that into consideration.

I know this is a serious matter, but what if this is "Pluto's Kiss" happening?
(.hack// fan)

Those two monitoring websites ARE scary!

Looks like another round of a sled-load of coal from Santa for these DDoS bitches.

for the scepticals, servers for XIV are located in quebec, canada. so be my guest on why anyone woulod attack canada in the first place.
