Comment Comment by Aissen Interesting to learn the reason HN was down:> You may have noticed that Hacker News was down on January 10th; we believe that was ultimately due to Cogent’s heavy handed approach to mitigating the DDoS targetting SourceHut (sorry, HN, glad you got it sorted).It was also in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38939532 but I did not see it earlier. parent Aissen 2 years ago
