Re: [~3000 Gh/s Mining Pool] HTTPS,API, instant payouts,LP,+1% for NO INVALID BLOCKS
So i took a 3 hr break form mining to see if things would settle down by then. Started my miners back up and still getting connection problems.. 
Is deepbit getting DDoS'd again along with other pools and websites or is something else going on? What is even the point of DDoS anyways? Is it used to drive down the next difficulty increase? Or just someone or group who hats bitcoins? Does the government ever do shady things like that? Is there any way to trace the attack back to the originator?
Tycho you have any word on when things might be back to normal?

You just asked 7 question in a row.
Personally, I think that they may be attacking routers, but I am simply speculating since I have done no analysis and seen no other problems with accessing any other sites on the Internet (neither has my wife and I at least visit international sites relatively frequently (a foreign media view of issues which is useful for various reasons). Maybe they are doing something with just port 8332. I think pools and miners need to work on a method to dynamically assign and often reassign the port for any particular miner .... brainstorming.
