Another automated attack has taken down the Tor mirror of BitMixList. The main site was unaffected by this. Please stand by while I restore operations.
Again?!
This just shows again how serious they are with this attacks and censorship of mixers and everything related with privacy.
If they are doing this with simple aggregative list of privacy for bitcoin, you can only imagine how they are attacking mixer websites itself.
It's fairly easy to do this when you have unlimited money supply and money printing machine.
This time it did not look like it was targeted. It appeared to be a DNS amplification attack hitting servers at random, and I somehow got caught in it. Very brief but deadly, and ISP has shut off my IPv4 traffic as a result of that as it had caused quite a few abuse reports
I need a few days to make backups, then I'll reinstall the server and we should be good (?) depending on whether this was a one-off (I hope so!)
