Soundcloud down

Soundcloud down

This is the longest I remember it being down. You can check status here. http://status.soundcloud.com/

Hm… a DoS attack of some sorts maybe?

That was my first thought.

This downtime is driving me crazy, yo.

There’s also http://issoundclouddown.com/ for the lulz.

lmfaooooo

It was up earlier, but now back down.

Current Outage: DDoS

We can confirm that the ongoing service outage that started at 8:40pm last night CET is a distributed denial-of-service attack.

We’re continuing to working hard to mitigate it.

This just made my day!!! LOL… It might have to say its the best gif on interwebz for me too.

On topic: I was wondering why I wasn’t getting any new notifications today. Why do ppl even do these types of things (DDoS) attacks? Especially on a harmless site like Soundcloud?

Because haters gonna hate. I’m assuming the wrong person got ripped off with his Pro account. Whatever it is, this world is coming to something strange, and I’m taking screenshots.
