I don't know about the internet being under attack but this morning I went to my local Walgreens and their computers/registers were down. The computerized door was going crazy. They wouldn't let people in the store. They wouldn't even take cash.
 Quoting: Corn Dog



This happened to me as well at Walgreens in Arizona. All computers down.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2164937
Well shoot, Walgreens is down and not just in CO. I wonder if other stores are down. It does make one think when they won't even take cash. We are certainly hostage to computers.

Just got my net back, I was down for 6 days. they had no answers had work crews here for almost a week.

I was losing 80% of outgoing packets on my hard line but incoming connection was fine. My wireless business connection is now loosing packets going out, verizon does not have a clue what is up.

That’s two different companies with the same outgoing packet loss issue.
I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw.

Re: The North American Internet is Under ATTACK! Does your internet connection suck lately? Here's why!
there is nothing sinister, idiots.

you have given corporations too much power, and now ENTIRE american internet infrastructure is controlled by 2 companies : at&t, comcast.

they are both bastards, who want to suck you all dry without giving you shit. also, they snoop on everyone, and say they have the right to decide which website you may see and which, you may not. if allowed, bye bye places like godlikeproductions. .... that is, unless godp pays them good money.

so, just zip it - ordinary 'market economics' at work - meaning, the private tyranny of the eventual dominant companies.

The North American HUB shows that at least 15 MAJOR HUBS are DOWN.

Is this normal?

No.

Someone is DELIBERATELY tampering with these hubs.

It would be 'normal' for perhaps 1 or 2 to fluctuate off at a time...but 15 is IMPOSSIBLE without tampering.

There is plenty that is sinister going on. My brother works for a major telecomunications corp and they have been fighting these guys for quite awhile on behalf of their clients. Whole IP range blocks have been and are still necessary. I wish I could say more but I can't. The poster above who mentioned the kill switch is spot on, but the switch isn't in the hands you may think it is.

Looks like that site has failed to maintain its servers. 100% packet loss confirms it. Finding second source to confirm... Oh look someone already posted.

A bit off topic but had this happened to anyone else?
We've had our cellphones with Sprint for over 10 years and have always been able to delete our voicemails using #7 (operater even still says to delete message press 7)but ever since the election we get a dozen poilitical spam voicemails on our phones that we are unable to delete.Pressing 7 does nothing.I'm only able to delete voicemail that I get from family.Explain that one?

I'm in the Twin Cities, MN, and the cable and internet (century link) are having *hickups*... not really slow just a burp here and there... BUT...my land phone, the one that is supposed to be the safest and problem free, is having a lot of interference! so bad i barely can use it... lots of noise in between, like i was really close to a power plant or so. I never had this problem before and i'm deep in white suburbia, so not new construction/power plants/towers or anything... something is really fishy here wtf

A few days ago, my wireless was down (so slow you could, worse than dial up) all day, but the direct connect was not. A friend of mine had same problem a few miles away on his wireless, went on for two days. Not sure if related, but today were fine.

Telmex Infinitum service in central Mexico, which has a sort of monopoly on DSL service in Mexico, has been working GREAT the last few days... for a change, because it is usually really bad service.
