WAR TIME!! Malaysiakini & ALL 6 Mirrors Knocked Out

[uncleyap]

There is not just ISA mass-arresting going on in Malaysia right now.

I found all 6 mirrors and main site of Malaysiakini.com gone.

malaysiatoday.com is also gone.

BN is on a war to stay in power. The war is on right now!

Uncle Yap,

Don't talk cok lah.

I am reading Malaysiakini and Malaysia Today RIGHT NOW.

I was using these sites last night until very late, but they were gone in the morning and I re-checked many times over 30 mins. Confirm all were down. The non-political sites were unaffected.

After that I went off-line, and I received sms to inform me that these sites resumed again.

Malaysiakini suffered technical faults during GE2008 in March. But their mirror remained up as their main server went faulty. GE2008 was a peak time of congestion. During Anwar's by-election there was no such problem.

However this morning, it shouldn't be so bad for congestion. Because it wasn't GE, it was just some ISA arrests. It shouldn't have overloaded so badly. That's why I believed they had been shut down.

Remember malaysiatoday.com was just shut down by BN govt this month. Remember malaysiakini.com was raided by BN's ISD (special brunch) more than once.

I will contact them to find out what happened. Both of these sites went down for more than 30 mins.

Shades of the SDP "market place" site during it's reforming.

Oh, you could read that msg. All I got was "CONNECTION RESET" all the way. Both for Malaysiakini.Com & MalaysiaToday.Com same error.

If so then, really indeed their sites were overloaded.

Unreasonable leh. No election mah. Only ISA arrested opposition only. I guess as the 916 gets nearer, this sort of things trigger more sensitive responds on the web, that flooded the servers until the servers Tak Boleh Tahan.

Now if this was Holland, those that made racial remarks would be protected instead. Would you like that?
