      • X, the former Twitter, has experienced a worldwide outage as of 12PM on Monday CAT.
      • This is likely the first major outage of the company since Musk took ownership in 2022.
      • The outage seems to have only lasted for about half an hour.

            DDoS attacks are illegal, but what is the legal amount of times a person can call a website? I'm sure enough people doing just a few calls per second couldn't get a person into too much trouble. Has the law even defined the difference?

              I don't know the 5 9s reference, but the two 8s is 88, a Nazi dog whistle for Heil Hitler, as H is the 8th letter of the alphabet.

                  God I hope there's some engineer somewhere at X quietly sabotaging all of their services.

                  Should plant a timed zip bomb on the servers that autoruns on reboot

                  Plug that random USB stick you found on the sidewalk directly into the server and open up Link_ParkFullAlbum-LimeWire.exe

                      Didn't Twitter go down multiple times for similar periods of time not long after Musk fired everybody? Or am I just hallucinating wishful thinking.

                        It would be poetic if the cyber attacks would be coming from Ukrainian hackers.

                          5 9s means 99.999% uptime, which translates to a site only being down for ~0.86 seconds per day. This is the golden standard for online services

                                  Elon's blaming DDOS. You know I heard that the people who bulit Twitter did a great job figuring out how to handle those. Gosh, I wonder what ever happened them?

                                      DDoS attacks are illegal, but what is the legal amount of times a person can call a website? I'm sure enough people doing just a few calls per second couldn't get a person into too much trouble. Has the law even defined the difference?

                                      The legal difference would be intent; are you trying to access the website, or are you trying to bog it down? Proving intent can of course be difficult, but OTOH I don't know how much longer American courts are going to care about silly things like proof

                                        I believe this is one of those things where intent matters, and may vary by location. Willing to bet hitting F5 a few times is safe, even a few hundred times as long as it’s in the realm of just checking if it’s up yet. The moment you have something scripted, you’re at least in the realm of having to explain it to a judge who probably knows fuck all about tech.
