DDoS Attacks Are a Crime and They Only Increase Interest (Intrigue) in Their Target
At the times of day/night when most of us are asleep or away the cyberattacks begin/intensify; it's hard to dismiss that as a mere coincidence.
This site "attracts" many unwanted visitors that see it as an "enemy" (e.g. EPO management, IBM management) and if they think that making the site less available serves their goals, then they're failing to understand the overall logistics of DDoS attacks and their true effect.
In 2014 when we began exposing EPO corruption with some important leaks we were quickly subjected to DDoS attacks. We wrote a great deal about it at the time. A year later several law firms in London (the SLAPP industry) targeted us. That too backfired because EPO insiders tell us that almost everyone at the EPO reads us.
