I REALLY wonder who is behind this attack. I’m going to make a wild ass guess and suppose the attack is connected with the recent uptick in usage among people monitoring flight traffic of planes fighting the Glass Fire in California. Who benefits from disrupting this information channel?
- secretvrdev 6y agoProbably nobody cared about internal us fires. On the weekend a new war started between Azerbaijan and Armenia. And there are a lot of other wars in that region where someone might hide one or another flights.
- dx034 6y agoApparently Flightaware also had issues which could explain that. ADSBExchange was still up but they're probably just too unknown for attackers to care. If you bring down Flightaware and Flightradar you can prevent most people from tracking those flights.
