Was the US hit by a massive 'DDoS attack'?

A sudden, widespread outage in online services has some worried America is under a massive cyberattack, but there might be more to it than that.

Bruh this must of happened to my freind because she can't text or call me

[strikerblizzard]

fortnite was actually NOT indeed one of those effected, it just had a huuuge live event yesterday, which cause the servers to go down, so no, fortnite was not targeted in these ddos attacks, also roblox did not get affected, there was only a few reports yesterday saying the servers were down for them.

We got covid19, Stock market crashes, Quarantine, DDos attacks, riots, north korea missile

Whats next?

I couldn’t play roblox yesterday for 30 min. Huge waste of my grinding time lol

[hh-vofh]

The fortnite part is stupid, there was an event 2 days ago. And they still think it's a DDOS. The reason why it had problems is because everyone was logging in at the same time.

Does anyone know what time it was when it happened?

[rkkzjj]

I was trying to play fortnite and the servers were down for the huge event they were planning and i thought i was watching a potential PR disaster unfold. Man why u gotta target a game xD

[ilostinterest]

I had no idea of this until I got a notification

[britshseniorsergeant]

Fornite is not Attacked Its only bsc of The massive live event
(Srroy for my spelling Erorr's)

[meandmybabybro]

This could be a message for a *much* larger attack maybe

[AliciaGuitar]

the news is claiming it was only tmobile problem but that is a LIE. my partner and I both have Verizon wireless and we could not text each other. If it was only T mobile then why were so many other companies affected? Plus, att keeps banning everyones IP and all devices must restart before they can connect to the internet again. I think they are getting attacked almost daily now, and kicking all IP as a mitigation technique. Too embarrassed to admit it.

[flippatheshippa]

I knew it was a DDoS attack I had a feeling

[ihvnz]

Sheesh I was still playing at didn’t get interrupted once during that time💀

I’d like to thank Comcast and my Netgear
XR500 for that😎
