Cyber attack by the Chinese?

WSJ, Stock Exchange and United Airlines. Hmmm. A coincidence, chance occurance or Chicom :slight_smile:

Check out this live cyber attack map:

That’s scary. Just what is that supposed to be, exactly?

Interesting map, China is quite busy today. I think I’ll change my security cam port 8080…:wink:

Well I suppose mass inflation would make my fixed rate student loans easier to pay off. Joyous.

Financial WMD’s.

If I had to guess, those who are in charge of rigging the casino, er, ahh, Wall St, shut it down before selling got out of hand… I figure they’re in a room somewhere trying to figure out what to do next…

It looks like it’s back up, (2:45pm) and down 279 points and was dropping as I type this… Hang on, the fun’s just getting ready to start…

Seems like an awful long time to be down due to a glitch?

I agree… I guess it could be nothing more than a server going down or it could be something far worse, I don’t really know. Does it have anything to do with China’s stock market?? I think so… and this could be bad…Alot of people have pointed out that if the American market were to crash, it would take the Chinese with them… If that’s possible, (I think it would be) I’d guess the reverse is also likely…

Tech glitch my ass. I can’t fathom the amount of redundancy the SE has for managing that volume of data.

Well, let’s consider the other things that have happened so far today as well, From Gawker (Yeah, that site)

The New York City subway system suffered an atrocious commute today, with some trains being inexplicably stranded in stations for long periods of time.

The website “The Dissolve” folded today.

United Airlines was forced to ground all of its flights after its computer system mysteriously stopped working.

The New York Stock Exchange suspended trading today after its computerized trading system mysteriously stopped working.

Immediately after, the Wall Street Journal’s website mysteriously stopped working.

More than 2,500 people in Washington, DC mysteriously lost power.

Interesting…I wonder does all this have anything to do with each other, or is it all a coincidence??

I think there might have been some cyber attacks that the media isn’t talking about.

Interesting post by Anonymous supposedly from last night.

Wonder if tomorrow is going to be bad for Wall Street… we can only hope.

Perhaps the rumored misery coming our way in Sept.??

Wouldn’t surprise me at all.
