In a now-deleted post on Telegram, a hacking group called Dark Storm Team claimed responsibility for the attack.

Do you think it really was a group in Ukraine, or do you reckon that’s bullshit?

    The first “D” in “DDOS” stands for “distributed”, i.e. it’s coming from many places at once. Elon is either an idiot or a liar. Or both.

        Actually not that hairy, you see the shirtless pic? He’s quite smooth, like a beluga whale.

      This. And distribution is not even an option: such servers block IP addresses that send suspicious amounts of data anyways so the DDoS request must be distributed.

      Elon is either an idiot or a liar. Or both.

      Fairly certain that there is enough evidence to support that he is both.

        Correct - but having seen them in action, well planned ones are executed from multiple countries at once so they can’t just be geoip blocked.

        My money is on Elon not understanding how it works, lying, or both. Much more history of that happening than the other.

          I agree, to me this feels like a red herring
