I briefly mentioned this in Skybirds thread but since then it seems to have spread a bit. Seems to have been a large scale co-ordinated assault on DNS servers on the US East Coast, quite impressive in its scale.
Who's behind it? Who can say, maybe a national agency or maybe an organisation, or maybe just the 'Internet hacker known as 4chan'.
