Site Attacked: Life Functions Not Terminated

DreamHost DDoS Attack 8-24-2017

The Escape Velocity event website is hosted by Dreamhost. DreamHost was down earlier today due to a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack.

Based on a few Twitter feeds and blogs, the attack appears to stem from Dreamhost’s decision to host the white supremacy site (Daily Stormer) that recently lost their other DNS provider. It appears that this attack happened within the last one to two hours, so there is no news coverage of this situation yet.
