Internet Archive Hit With DDoS Attacks

From PC Mag: The Internet Archive is reportedly facing ongoing distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. The attacks began over the Memorial Day long weekend, according to the California-based nonprofit and several users who said they were unable to access the digital archive site for several hours on Monday.

"Archive.org is under a DDoS attack," the nonprofit's X account wrote Monday morning. "The data is not affected, but most services are unavailable."

A few hours later, the nonprofit added that there was some "back and forth with the attackers." The organization said it made some changes to its service, but has not yet shared further details on the identity of the attackers or any possible reason for the attack. PCMag has reached out to Internet Archive for comment.
