Hackers harm Twitter
Category: TechnikThis afternoon , August 6th 2009, the microblogging service „Twitter“ had technical problems. Hackers may have impaired the server with a so-called DoS-Attack.
[Translate to English:] Twitter von Hackern lahmgelegt.
A Denial-of-Service-Attack (DoS) sends myriads of requests to a server until it collapses under the load of the requests. The microblogging service Twitter seems not to be immune to such attacks. The service was not available for several hours.
