Leon says twitter was attacked. Discord had lots of channels not available (presumably DDoS but no confirmation I’ve seen).

Edit - a number of companies were affected but were maybe collateral damage. The main target may have been twitter.

Botnets are on the rise but only really useful to certain groups (playstation xbox attacks ), if makerworld is suffering i`d assume its an ineffective individual targeting easy services , (could it be plausable that they had access to them?)

Apparently reality is a bit difficult for some. Let’s pretend it was just a mysterious outage and nobody claimed responsibility. It’s the new normal.

Edited to remove the offending bits of reality for those of delicate constitution.

cmd prompt is a major contributing factor to twitter , as far as im aware they still use it to create their own bots for ad reasons, thats the other one beside the playstation outage, plus one other thing , pinch of salt when it comes to stories that claim on behalf of , people just want to make others look bad

It was prob just that user that had his 6+ warhammer figurine accounts banned. :rofl:

No, not banned. “Permission Restricted” because they’re incapable of banning people :roll_eyes:
