DDoS attack affecting Blizzard servers

[Tinytalon]

Is Timewalking different on different servers? It's MoP this week on Ghostlands.

It's the same for everyone.

[Railander]

Why burn the library of Alexandria?

i don't think someone dumb enough to be motivated by irrational beliefs would be smart enough to launch large scale DDoS attacks.

[Devilyaki]

Well beck to monster hunter then ..

[gutnbrg]

this is getting out of hand...cmon blizz use those billions of dollars and fix this.

[Unsound]

probably russians as usual, and of course we arent allowed to attack THEIR things but they can attack us all they want

This is advanced cringe.

Cool! Hope it works out for them as well as it did for Lizard Squad! We certainly remember how well that worked out for those script kiddies a few years back.

i hope you're sarcastic with this comment. People have pulled guns out on fast food joints for not having a fucking chicken sandwich.

its just true, and blizzard does have really good security infrastructure, and statistically when corporate infrastructure is hacked it is done outside the US in either russia/china or eastern europe where their is almost no consequence for it

[Stormdash]

Wish we had a Dexter episode about a DDOSer. They deserve it.

"no consequense for it". Like murica aint doing shit out in the cyberworld without any "consequense" haha

[Outofmana]

we pvt-server-like now at last

[Zyky]

having found a source, but ppl are saying twitter and wikipedia are also b eing affected... pretty sure you get jail time and fines for DDoS'ing... and you know.. getting caught is actually a thing in 2019

Ya except if you're in a country that doesn't give a fuck or if you're not an idiot who knows how to hide your identity online.

pulling out a gun does not require years of experience and a minimum of IQ to do.
launching large scale DDoS attacks does.

i will say it again, if you're smart enough to pull this kind of attack you should also be smart enough to not be motivated by irrational beliefs.

You can be intelligent enough to understand how something works but fundamentally be so stupid that it lacks common sense. President Trump says hello for an example.
IQ doesn't measure actual intelligence nor would it be relevant to a person ideology.

idk if you know, but you cant just throw money at problems.
if it was that simple the world would be perfect, but it aint. some things just cant be solved with lots of money.

what do people get from burning down buildings?
from killing people?
nothing but the enjoyment of ruining someones day/life/livelyhood/posessions.
simply the enjoyment of knowing you are harming someone.

Yeah but usually there is benefits from doing part of human nature is greed.

Humans don't go "hahahaha" I kill you because I want to kill you thats all hahaha"

This is real life not cartoon every action human do must have some kind of reward or benefits unless we are talking about degenerate brainless kids of course then that is different issues.

[Lorien]

Are these problems still going on?
