My router has DDoS prevention. I used it to stop a chinese guy from DDoSing a server I hosted once. I banned him from the server for being a trashy human being and he got upset and started attacking. I really do hope I'm wrong about this. I just find it hard to trust SE these days. Why can't billionaire corporations combat a few people pushing in lots of network traffic in?
Sometimes it is DDoS, pretty sure a couple instances were very much proven, helped by atleast one of them being a group that was attacking multiple other companies around the same time frame. Other times its a "DDoS" AKA "a LOT of people are getting on and thus causing a situation exactly like a DDoS."

That said right now there doesn't seem to be anything happening, SE would have said something by now even if it was to cover themselves like you are suggesting they do.
