Geopolitical Attack On Twitter Still Going On…. Welcome to WAR 2.0
Biz Stone has updated Twitter Blog stating the attack on Twitter is still on and it could be geopolitical in nature. We reported something similar yesterday after the attack started on Thursday. Biz Stone writes
“The ongoing, massively coordinated attacks on Twitter this week appear to have been geopolitical in motivation. However, we don’t feel it’s appropriate to engage in speculative discussion about these motivations”
“Denial of Service attacks are a known quantity on the web and they are not going away any time soon.”
The worst part : There are even reports that this attack has actually grown 10 folds over the period of time. Have a look at Twitter Development Talk.
This is something very very rare and web has never seen anything like this before. This just gives us glimpse of the times we are in. The war between the nations is now slowly but steadily moving from battle ground to the web. Don’t be surprised if you see major chunk defense budgets going into web web war fare in coming times. Welcome to War 2.0
More updates coming as soon as we learn more.

Great headline. If your cookie has a bite-sized action and your reader completes the action, I think two things happen. Their self-confidence goes up (which feels good) and their trust in you increases.

Very much utilitarian transmit but there are some burden where I wish not agree. But all-inclusive its pure good.
