The company behind the popular Blender 3D creation software has been under attack since November 18th according to Blender COO Francesco Siddi, forcing multiple web services offline. Blender websites like code, developer, docs, devtalk, download, and wiki remain unavailable, but most Blender.org functionality has since been restored. Siddi said in his latest update that the attack has “slowed.” Update, November 22nd, 7.07AM ET: Added latest status information.
Attacking the Blender foundation is honestly a new low. There is no “lulz” and nothing to gain
This is most likely a demo from someone selling access to their botnet.
At least ddos some subsidieray from facebook or something that has not a lot of attention than a FOSS app :(
Honesty, it might help Blender. More press covering a FOSS app and you have to know about something to try it out.
Fair point. Poor sysadmins trying to get the infrastructure back (assuming they have actually dedicated tech staff)
I know. It’s just rude.
