WordPress.com Suffering Major DDoS Attack
Developing story, we are updating:
According to a tweet from WordPress.com, the hosted blogging service is currently suffering a ?non-trivial? Distributed Denial of Service attack, causing ?Sporadic slowness?.
The downtime is ?Multiple Gigabits per second and tens of millions of packets per second? according to an email sent out to WordPress? VIP customers. The email says that the company is working to resolve the issues and that VIP customers will be top priority.
We?ve contacted WordPress.com?s parent company Automattic and will update with more information as it becomes available.
