The Internet Archive, a vital digital repository for millions of historical documents and websites, is currently grappling with a significant distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack. Reports indicate that the DDoS attack began earlier today, severely impacting the site’s accessibility and functionality.
The Internet Archive team said to have made ‘some adjustments‘ and is actively working to mitigate the disruption. Despite their efforts, users have experienced intermittent access issues, leading to frustration among researchers, historians, and the general public who rely on the site for various purposes.
Sorry to say, https://t.co/rvOhn0byKe is under a ddos attack. The data is not affected, but most services are unavailable.
