BLACKOUT! Numerous conspiracy sites offline in organized attack.

Have been experiencing difficulties getting onto ATS, also GLP a few days ago, it says my IP address is banned.

I am not sure if what I experienced was a result of the system maintenance, site attack, or simply something to do with the content of my post or the thread I was posting in... Just thought I'd throw that link out to see if anyone knows the deal with it... never seen a 'security error' alert on ATS before... maybe they are issued during maintenance?

It feels good to be back on ATS...never felt any better the last few minutes...

Peace

Guess the NSA switch over was not as bumpless as they would of like
GLP and LOP are all back up to.

It is not just CT sites but numerous hubs in North America are down today showing zero on the internet traffic report. www.internettrafficreport.com...

Get a grip and do your homework folks.

At least you know we got your back when shtf. Lol. Maybe a heads up next time?! I dont want to cry wolf when it's not necessary.

Beforeitsnews is giving me issues now. Wtf?!

Yup- access for ATS stopped for me as well- I was reading an interestinjg thread at the time too.

,....AND WOULDNT YOU KNOW IT- they were talking about the crackdown of "conspiracy groups/theorists" on that thread.

Yeah yeah i'm aware cyber warfare has been ongoing I wasn't suggesting this was the first thing ever.

What I was suggesting is that a more larger initiative was seemingly moving to the next phase.

Which I still believe to be true!

Edit: Btw this applies to many websites not just ATS.... very suspicious..

I was also, got the same thing, except I got a " gateway1 timedout" unresponsive 504 message, weird, never got that one before on my s3 my network, and the net were unresponsive for a good 1/2 hour, just glad to find out what it was.

I was worried they had hacked my phone at first, I had issues with every cons site I tried, then I almost thought it wss on my end.

As long as we are on the subject, does anyone know how good incognito is on the s3? I am not realky familliar with it, is it like using a proxy, or does it just hide my activity on my phone so nobody can tell how much pron I been surfing?

Hmm, what does "TPTB" not yet control that is becoming increasingly prevalent... I know! The internet.
Especially conspiracy theorists websites, where citizens become thought criminals.

oh the irony, care to write about holographic planes hitting the WTC or maybe a baned version of the sandy hook conspiracy here on ATS?

Let me spell it out for you internet technology awareness deprived individuals. If the North American network is down 11 major hubs at once you are going to have lost packets and lost data giving you time outs. That is the fact of the matter. My reference shows that this is the case in real time.

It can not be put in clearer terms for the too lazy to search for the real reason for the problem. The internet is having a problem. What that is is not related to CT sites but the structural hubs of the North American internet. That is the facts as they are not your conspiracy theory BS.

hehe, you're right. Just some kids in a basement hacking all these websites for the previous week. Nothing to see here.

Who said anything about Holographic planes or bane?

Whatever it is, it seems to be focused upon the United States. The three guesses that work for me are:

1) China.
2) The Feds wanting it to look like China.
3) Kim Jung Un got a new, hyped up iPhone and is bored.

Well for a long time dalnet suffered severe constant and network damaging ddos attacks a number of years ago. Why? Because people were pissed off with dalnet.

It comes and goes. ATS is popular. Conspiracy websites have been popularised a lot lately.

It's not the small user end market any more, it's a business.

Many people will target business.

Hence, they will change targets from an irc network, to a search engine network, to a conspiracy network, to an online payment system, etc, etc for whatever reasons they want.

nothing to do with the secret changes by the government to take over the data flow....

If they wanted to make all traffic routed through a server for the government, which is not only logistically impossible to do as it would severely disrupt - constantly - the traffic, but they would do it openly. Make it a law. Pass that law, you'd have no choice. webmasters would have to comply, or it would all go like torrent trackers.. posts hosted off server, etc, etc.. a joke of an idea to expect in reality.

And for what... so they could keep tabs on bob's cloub busting technology... which he's converted to make onto a chemtrail buster. Such a dire implementation of secret technology that the government must control it at the source.

You may as well desire to build a combustion engine out of string. In the mind, it's a fantastic feat, but in reality, it just does not work...

Bingo. That's the one!

Whatever it is, it seems to be focused upon the United States.

Australia too. All other sites, google, youtube, yahoo ect are loading fine. ATS major problems loading in the last few hours.

I've seen many of the same topics on ATS that I've seen on football forums.

Yes, they must target the conspiracy website. It's the only way to get the real grub on those dastardly people..

good Grief....

Come down, not everyone monitors the hubs,..

Think about the irony:

A conspiracy site times out straight after a thread regarding other major Conspiracy sites going offline, while you have a bunch of conspiracy folks having time-out issues straight after reading the thread..

Peace.

Without further analysis of the network traffic involved, it is just speculation as to why there are connection problems. If there is a general trend with conspiracy sites being affected it is also possible that public interest in the topics are rising, resulting in a what appears to be a DDOS attack but a lot less sinister as the network just becomes overloaded through general use of increasing public attention.
