Getting that too in Maryland. Got kicked out of a game of Overwatch due to a DNS error and then trying to get back in would give me PSN under maintenance message.

Russia kicking cyber again
Extortion, hacktivism, "punishing" the companies, just seeing if it can be done, you name it. No-one seems to have claimed the attack yet, though.
why are you doing this to me

It's probably them.
I wouldn't be surprised if Hillary pissed them off during the final debate and exposed their plan to sabotage the election with Trump.
But then again it could be a bunch of script kiddies
Threads like this one, if it's an animal squad. Showing who has the bigger nats if it's the russians.
Irish coffee please. And don't be cheap on the irish.

From what I can gather, the DDoS attack is retaliation against a large DNS company for their work in collaboration with cyber security journalist Brian Krebs.

It's cool that even though a lot of the world's major web sites are down, good old Gaf has survived.

Been playing league all day no problems
I could believe that is true. People have been trying to fuck shit up for Krebs for a while now. Could definitely see someone trying to attack a service that collaborated with him
This is how WW3 really starts - porn sites going offline, when all dvd rental's have gone out of business.
