HN isn’t the place to spread these sort of lies. Glad it’s up for you. Bring receipts if you see a “coordinated campaign”

> This post appears to be part of a coordinated DOS campaign against X to maximize brand damage.

The brand damage is coming from inside the house.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I understand there's an increased error rate, that's how I concluded there is an attempted DOS. But it appears not to be working completely, and so a post claiming X is "down" does appear to be pre-coordinated to reflect the _intended_ rather than _actual_ effect.

Let's say this is a DOS causing the outage - if the DOS is bad enough that the service is out for enough users then that is effectively an outage, regardless of the cause.

Saying this post is part of a coordinated campaign to damage the X brand is just ridiculous though - it's clear that X IS down for a large number of users.
