It’s one thing to read of the hack job on Lieberman’s website, it’s down right hilarious to read the left explain it away. Word for the Kos, “cheap” websites get DoS’s a well. But to say that this shut down was caused by excessive bandwidth, is asinine.

“They are paying $15/month for hosting at a place called MyHostCamp, with a bandwidth limit of 10GB. MyHostCamp is currently down, along with all their clients.

Here’s the deal — you get what you pay for. My hosting bill is now over $7K per month. A smaller site doesn’t need that much bandwidth, but if you’re paying $15 because your $12 million campaign is too freakin’ cheap to pay for quality hosting, then don’t go blaming your opponent when your shitty service goes out.”

Moron…

The fact – especially on ‘cheap hosting sites’ is that unless one has asked to have the accounted suspended when you cross a bandwidth threshold, the charges will pile up, but it won’t necessarily shut down the site, you just get a big bill.

The behavior described lends to a DDoS Attack, which is where the attacker compromises many hosts and deploys attacking agents on them. The attacker signals all agents to simultaneously launch an attack on a victim. In other cases it is a coordinated attack, where there is more than one attacker.

The amount of denial coming from uber left websites is suspicious in itself, and others have as well as the logs which are being looked at as we speak. Although these attacks are hard to trace because of “spoofing” source IP addresses, however it is not impossible.

One thing for sure, something mangy took place, and like they say, “Those who protest the loudest are the guilty”. To be sure, this wasn’t the first attack on the site, there had been two others, but maybe that was just “cheap hosting”, eh?

Right.

UPDATE: More guessing. Fact is that the server was hit, and is being aggressively investigated.
