About AO3’s current problems

Apparently their attackers aren’t who they’re claiming to be, so be cautious about accepting what narratives you might hear.

Ok I'm gonna explain this in Green Text, just for Elon's fanboys:

> Be Elon

> Refuse to Pay your bills

> Twitter gets kicked off Google Cloud's servers

> Suddenly limit post views in a frantic attempt to compensate

> Users keep trying to see posts

> Can't see the posts because of post limits

> Twitter keeps sending requests, multiple times per second, that can't go through

> Every failed request IMMEDIATELY triggers a new request that also fails

> Resources get bogged down and Twitter starts crashing

> Tfw you launched a DDOS attack against your own website

The group claiming responsibility for the Ddos attack on Ao3 is not a Sudanese hacking group. It is, however, a Russian group who's goal is to spread islamophobia amung lgbt+ communities.

Why?

Because if they breed islamophobia in queer spaces they can show Islamic states, such as Saudi Arabia and Iran, that the West supports the 'big bad queer people' and wants to attack Islamic countries. So Russia can align themselves diplomatically and millitarily so they can raise the price of oil and win the war on Ukraine.

Edit: ALSO SHOUT OUT TO THE AO3 VOLUNTEERS! Y'ALL TOOK ON THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT AND WON.

Major respect to @ao3org for dealing with this godawful DDoS attack rn. That's a shitty situation to be in and props to all the volunteers who are handling it. With luck it'll be resolved soon but until then, y'all don't be bothering Ao3 with refreshing fic links and stuff. It's more traffic that clogs the system. Check with a tracking site that checks their status, their actual tumblr blog, and twitter for updates.
