There’s a really large DDOS attack going on right now, uh, Lemme could be getting caught up in it, somehow.
Yikes!

Cloudflare has said it recently successfully stopped the largest distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack ever recorded. The attack reached 22.2 terabits per second and 10.6 billion packets per second, setting a new world record.
Holy shit. But it lasted only 40 seconds… This smell like a field test for something worse.
Might be, yes. But that suuurely cost a fuckton of money.
When isn’t there one going?
I mean, yes, but this one is really huge. I think it’s in the trillions of source nodes, if I understand the blurb I saw about it.

“Somehow”… seems to be caused by using centralized MitM Clownflare that supposedly protects against DDOS 🙄
