Reports of Thousands of Alleged DDoS Attacks on Americans Are Growing
The United States may be under a large-scale DDoS attack, according to several reports.
The term stands for “distributed denial-of-service” and is designed to overrun an online network and cause it to essentially become unable to run. In other words, it’s the work of cyber attackers!
One outlet, Netscout, believes there have been at least 200 attacks so far while Anonymous, a covert Internet group, shared the Digital Attack Map that supports these claims.
Brazil is another country allegedly under cyber attack.
Places that appear to be most prone include all of the major social media platforms, along with Verizon and T-Mobile.
Anonymous apparently thinks that China is behind it, but who actually knows!
We guess we’ll just have to wait until pans out.
