ring of fire

hey pals,
you may have noticed ytmnd has been flapping a lot in the last few days. it seems someone has been ddosing us. my isp has been great about filtering it, but it's still going on.

in other news, i'm rolling out some neat stuff very soon, and the designer promised to have the new ytmnd design on Wednesday.

if you have some network know-how, please read more!

I've taken a 2 minute snapshot of what's remaining of the DDOS, and I put the log up here. If you consider yourself cybersleuths, infiltrate this drone net and figure out where it's hosted/who's running it. god knows the fbi would take months.

If anyone knows anything about the source of the ddos, please send me an email or private message. thanks buddies.

De burgemeesters zijn verantwoordelijk voor de openbare orde en daarmee ook voor politieactiviteiten op dat vlak. De hoofdofficier van justitie L.A.J.M. de Wit is verantwoordelijk voor opsporingsonderzoeken die de politie uitvoert. Burgemeester Cohen heeft een aantal beheersbevoegdheden gemandateerd aan hoofdcommissaris Welten, die deze daarmee zelfstandig kan uitvoeren.

Find YTMNDs "enemies" (suspects; which there could be quite a few seeing as YTMND may or may not have pissed off a whole lot of people/or someone "impersonated" YTMND member(s) on the internet. Then narrow them down by people who would have a good motive and the resources to perform such a DDoS from various locations across the globe and would want to cover/hide themselves. Then take the evidence found (the IPs etc.) and build a case. Simple as that. Except it isn't really simple. Also please take down the IP tracker.

holy sh*t, this thing just f*cked up, the Scientology disclaimer is gone, the top 5 turned into the top voted on, and the top 15 most viewd YTMNDs are now just a few of them.... WHAT THE F*CK IS GOING ON???!?!

changes: top viewed (old top 15) now show 6 randomly from the top 35 viewed, changes once per minute. top voted on shows the sites with the most 5s today (not the last 24 hours, today). this is dupe checked against the up and coming so it may be empty after midnight. u&c changed back to 400 votes ceiling.

i say before you tell me to f*ck myself in all your infinite wisdom you actually wait to see what the results are tomorrow. or you could jump to conclusions and say it's a horrible idea before you even give it a chance. in either case i dont give a sh*t. huzzah

Cool. I can't wait to see how this Top35 list works out..... It's gotta be an improvement. we'll wait and see. There's still a little space there left for the "Last 3 searches" box.... I'd kinda like to see that back someday.

Judging from comments 248 and 250, that would be the ~800 sites using "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger". Also 0xFFth

Consider the unlikely case that an uploaded file has the same md5, but different filesize. Does the server copy get get updated, or does seniority win over (as it probably should, to prevent ruining 800 sites with an updated file)?

"now show 6 randomly from the top 35 viewed, changes once per minute." that's kind of... stupid? Just scrap the top viewed entirely. It is hardly an indicator of good sites as earlier today proved. Make it a "Top YTMNDs Created Today" so one doesnt need to check the up and coming every few hours for a good site. There are many decent sites of late that don't get any attention after their brief stint in the Up and Coming.

I mean, everyone already checks for new additions to the "All Time Top 5 List", but if you had a "Top 5 YTMNDs of the Day", a high rated YTMND uploaded at say, noon, could feasibly be one of the highest viewed YTMNDs of the day.

The thing is, a lot of these ddos attacks aren't actually done by people who even know they are doing it. Most ddos attacks are the result of virus/worm propogation and are created through unpatched servers, most running IIE or windoze xp, and then used to proxy the attack. That is the heart of any ddos attack. My workplace deals with spammers quite often who have huge bot nets, and when one gets blocked they simply rotate the old one out and rotate a new set of bots in.
