Ah.Dyn is the target.
Seems like services are starting to go back up now?
Ha, good. Maybe they will learn something from this as in the future, it will only get worse (since the IoT is still in the early stages). I doubt that though."Flashpoint is now reporting that the attack on Dyn today is in fact being launched by a Mirai-based IoT botnet" Krebs on twitter
"The total number of IoT devices infected with the Mirai malware has reached 493,000, up from 213,000 bots before the source code was disclosed around Oct. 1, according to internet backbone provider Level 3 Communications."

The future of the internet looks bleak.
tin foil hat mode:
Governments want that fully controlled internet 2 and will make the internet 1 unusable so people will want the internet 2 to login to their twitters and facebooks.
Back to normal:
This IoT devices with their default passwords.. I think it should be mandated that every IoT device come with unique password that is put with stickers or whatever on their user manual. This could lower some of the burden.
I'm playing Dark Souls 3 just fine, but my friend can't login to PSN.
