Seems like half the internet is down this morning... Amazon, Twitter, Spotify and a ton of other sites that share the DNS servers are under attack. I can't even play Battlefield 1.

It is affecting our email servers so if you are trying to email us or have tried to email us in the last 4 or 5 hours the messages may be delayed or lost.

If it's not an emergency... I suggest you all go outside and shoot something while this (hopefully) blows over.
 
This also affects our Customer Support portal on RED.com so support tickets also not going through. So, if you need urgent technical support, please call 949.206.7900.

Guess I can finally get that overdue smog check...
 
I think any detective worth his salt.. or bacon.. or salted bacon... would start with the assumption this is RED related and all those other companies are just collateral damage.

And getting in the mind of such a detective, I would look first at the list of WEAPON Vv payers who may be... shall we say, disgruntled.

I would also include the RED Bomb Squad. These guys and gals have been worked hard lately trying to communicate with all the people with questions and demanding answers. They may have just gotten to the breaking point where they have to have a break. And breaking the email server may have seemed like the only solution.

It's obviously not a personal attack since I haven't sent any emails to RED lately. '-)
 
I am experiencing a wierd thing on this thread: http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?150046-Introducing-Weapon-Helium-8K/page18

Only on Iphone - IOS 10 , Chrome browser - when I click any page number link I get a pop-up with calling a random number at each link.

Very wierd :D
 
I also read this morning that in the Kremlin, GPS at Putin's compound shows an airport some miles away. When I first read that I thought Putin must be worried some GPS guided bomb would target him so he cloaked himself as the airport. Suggested this might be pre-emptive measures because he was planning a nucler (sic) attack on some adversary or another who might respond.

Was much relieved to learn stuff is happening all over which suggests we are only being setup for an alien take-over. At least with their phasers and lasers they won't have to use nukuler. (whew)

Really, you've got time to play Battlefield 1 ?!? Don't you have another sensor/camera R&D work to do? :-)
 
Sounds like someone's demoing a WebCam Bot DDos before selling its use on the underground market.

Edit : Correction : WebCam & DVRs : To affect political agenda : Looks like it was not State-sponsored.
