Anyone have any additonal info on a DDOS attack hitting host.us? Woke up to no email this morning and the following from their web site: *Following an extortion attempt, HostUS is currently experiencing sustained large-scale DDOS attacks against a number of locations. The attacks were measured in one location at 300Gbps. In another location the attacks temporarily knocked out the entire metropolitan POP for a Tier-1 provider. Please be patient. We will return soon. Your understanding is appreciated. *
From my monitoring system, looks like my VPS went unavailable around 23:00
EDT last night. Robert
