The DDoS Limbo
If you're reading this, it's because my website is down. Again.
For the third time in as many weeks, my personal blog, www.darelparker.com, has been hit with a distributed denial of service attack. Not "affected by", but directly targeted.
I know this because it's the only website at the IP address that was attacked. Three weeks ago, it had a different IP address which was - you guessed it - also attacked.
Not much controversy on my website, but I have noticed that as of late, I've been getting a bunch of traffic for an article I wrote, critical of an apparent DNS hijacking scheme, the source of which no one seems able to identify.
To be sure, the colocation facility has verified this to be a DDoS and not a Slashdotting or Digg, so I'm wondering WTF is going on. Did I piss somebody off?
