I'm sorry, are you the owner of any of those websites, that you're so sure about what is or isn't happening with them?
It's not necessarily a DDoS attack whenever a website is down. With the recent upsurge in interest for Bitcoin, some websites were just caught unprepared for these levels of legitimate(!) traffic, that's all.
It's a DDoS alright. No doubt about it.
As a site admin, ive been confronted to DDOS and I can assure you it is a DDOS attack. All these different site coming down same time is common to this type of attack.
If Prolexic can't block them, who can!They are supposed to be one of the biggest specialized firm to prevent such attacks.
Until GOX invest BIG in its own hardware protection, which will take at least 2 weeks,just Sit and watch the drama unfold.I can only see more panick and more diving with those more recurrent attacks.
