gaf is dying for me as a post this

 

[TapeDispenser1000]

xHamster is down for me. Are you frigging happy now.

 

[BronsonLee]

I'm not saying the Russians are responsible, but if you pledge your vote for Trump your internet speeds will go back to normal.

True neutrality

 

[bananafactory]

I live in Edmonton and yep I am experiecing issues on a school computer I am on right now.

Edmonton, Twitter on my desktop is completely dead. Can't even resolve the page

 

[Wuthering_Heights]

YouTube down on PS4 for me.

Gonna blame this.

Edit: Nevermind. Was using Google DNS on my PS4. Swapped it back to default and it works fine. So of anyone is having issues on PS4, don't use Google DNS.

 

[zeemumu]

That explains why my Twitter app took so long to refresh.

 

[jelly]

Everyone is surfing GAF when they work, even hackers.

 

[Benedict]

A lot of Swedish goverment sites are down or have been down/affected.

 

[Kuros]

Twitter search, WhatsApp and gumtree search not working here.

Fucking wankers.

 

[Kayhan]

What is the Democratic Obama administration and Democratic Nominee Hillary going to about this attack on the proud nation?

 

[rpmurphy]

If anyone's interested in the live map of DDoS attacks around the world (doesn't show the big one since it was in the morning)

http://map.norsecorp.com/#/

What the heck is in De Kalb Junction, NY that makes it a constant target?

 

[Fancy Clown]

2! Fallout 3 can't even come up with its own lines.

EDIT: It might have been in the first game as well. I haven't played that in almost 20 years though.

The wisdom of elders never ceases to amaze!

Make sure to get out and vote on November 28 to save the internet

 

[Timeaisis]

I don't think the news is making enough of a deal about this. I'm guessing this is just the beginning of a wave of attacks.

Vault Dweller status when?

 

[Soul Beat]

It's happening, isn't it? The beginning of the end.

 

[Morts]

I'm not finding many sites I can't access at work right now (though The Verge us down) everything does seem significantly slower. Also no Twitter app for the last hour or two.

 

[marrec]

Everyone is surfing GAF when they work, even hackers.

Sergey: SIR! We've successfully taken down the DNS servers that host Twitter, Slack, YouTube, and PSN!

Vladimir: Excellent comrade!

Sergey: Would you like me to target the DNS hosting NeoGAF sir?

Vladimir: NO! ...I mean, no, not yet. In due time.

*camera pulls back to reveal Vladimir is posting on NeoGAF, focuses on username... "Team Alucard"*

*dramatic music*

 

[wenis]

xHamster is down for me. Are you frigging happy now.

You all laughed at us for storing porn away on a hard drive, but look who's laughing now!

 

[Astorgh]

GAF, can't handle Nintendo Switch. But an attack on the US internet infrastructure? Just fine.

 

[Kayhan]

It's happening, isn't it? The beginning of the end.

Somebody get the keys to the happening bunker.

 

[jelly]

What is the actual point of doing it, annoying sure but not end of the world. If they could do it 24/7 that would be troubling but I doubt it. The only worth it could be is a distraction while hackers do something much more damaging.

Are the US going to knock some sites down over there, it just seems so lame.

 

[Damaniel]

On my phone in Portland, OR. Nothing seems to be down or even slow for me at the moment.

 

[Fancy Clown]

I'VE FINALLY CAUGHT YOU REDHANDED

No one will ever believe you

 

[Media]

This made me laugh so hard, thank you.

 

[Caleb187]

Google's DNS servers seem to have the same issues but OpenDNS has worked for me:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

 

[Kibbles]

4 years of Hillary means 4 years of attacks on our internet and viruses swarming our computers. Trump will make internet great again.

Born too late to explore the earth. Born too soon to explore the galaxy.

Born just in time to browse dank memes and then the ruskies fucking came for the dank memes.

Russia can't cyber once she nukes it.

 

[Rentahamster]

So that's why Twitter is dead. Usually this might be a good excuse to play Civ 6, but unfortunately, today's work can be done without an internet connection.

 

[Scofield94941]

Am I the only one who notices that the effected areas are almost all democrat states?

 

[Rainbow In The Dark]

aw come on. Let me watch Black Mirror pls

 

[BiggNife]

Am I the only one who notices that the effected areas are almost all democrat states?

It's only because those states have the highest population density. Texas is getting attacked heavily too.

[JaseMath]

Did Evillore really meet Obama or is that Photoshopped image? I'm seriously asking.

 

[kendrid]

On my phone in Portland, OR. Nothing seems to be down or even slow for me at the moment.

A coworker & I were discussing this. Most likely Twitter and other apps have hardcoded IP addresses and do not need DNS.

 

[dh4niel]

I remember there was a site that had a map that showed the cyber attacks that were sent and there region of origin. Can't remember what it was though.

There are a couple and when I last tried them, they were all done.

Good idea, don't let this situation keep you from wasting more of your life on packaged entertainment. You wouldn't want to spend your time on something valuable.

He met him.
