New, by me: Anti-DDoS Firm Heaped Attacks on Brazilian ISPs A Brazilian tech firm that specializes in protecting networks from distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks has been enabling a botnet responsible for an extended campaign of massive DDoS attacks against other network operators in Brazil, KrebsOnSecurity has learned. The firm’s chief executive says the malicious activity resulted from a security breach and was likely the work of a competitor trying to tarnish his company’s public image. https://krebsonsecurity.com/2026/04/anti-ddos-firm-heaped-attacks-on-brazilian-isps/ #ddos #tplink #hugenetworks #brazil

👩🏻‍💻 my so-called sudo life - day 497: Mastodon stampede edition 🐘​ Dear Fedi friends, You may remember how last year I was dealing with self-DDoS attacks every time I shared a link to my Wordpress or Ghost sites. Well, I solved the issue with Ghost (#VinylCache is brilliant) but I never found a solution for my Wordpress site... not even with #BunnyCDN. I guess I wasn't tweaking the right settings. This is a pity because TBH the ActivityPub for Wordpress plugin is SO COOL and works flawlessly. I had to move my blog posts to Ghost and keep Wordpress as a static portfolio site. That being said, I never dared share links to my Wordpress site anymore because I would get about 4000 requests within 60 seconds and everything would freeze. I just looked into #BunnyCDN's settings again and tried to tweak them. So please bear with me for an experiment, sharing an old blog post and seeing what happens. Wish me luck!

@LunaDragofelis@void.lgbt +9001% I treat them as such and literally consider automating #AbuseReports and #blackholing of #traffic that way. Interestingly #TorBrowser users are the most honest as none of the #DDoS'ing #Scrapers seem to claim to be it.

https://OpenStreetMap.org has been disrupted today. We're working to keep the site online while facing extreme load from anonymous scrapers spread across 100,000+ IP addresses. Please be patient while we mitigate and protect the service. #OpenStreetMap #DDoS #Scrapers #AI
