  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.

    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 🙄

  We were getting DDoS’d by a bunch of South American IPs (mostly Brazilian) from maybe 18 hours ago.

    Were they residential IP addresses? I had this a couple weeks back. But it wasn’t just Brazil, constant hits from Argentina and few other countries. Tried different things but they were all unique residential addresses and hard to block, then set up challenge for the whole continent. Finally, it went down.

      Yeah, same story - the few I looked at looked like they were from consumer ISPs. We had ~7m requests from Brazil, ~900k from Argentina, and a little less from Ecuador, Colombia and Russia.

    It seems that there has been a massive short lived ddos attack all over the web.

    There have been several in the later years. Sone of them are linked to a botnet called AISURU that it’s supposedly infected millions of devices worldwide.

    No, that's what the common prejudices about the popular whipping boy of the moment says.

  Is just heavy traffic?

    that is ddos in a nutshell, but people are speculating the causes

  It was my fault. Happened shorty after I joined lemmy. Sorry everyone.
