Smells like a DDoS.

It's difficult to know if it is a coordinated attack or an unexpected side effect of the protest.

HTTP/1.1 429 Too Many Requests Connection: keep-alive Content-Type: application/json Access-Control-Expose-Headers: retry-after, x-sentry-rate-limits, x-sentry-error Vary: Origin Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 14:49:00 GMT Content-Length: 45 Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://www.reddit.com retry-after: 14 x-sentry-rate-limits: 14:default;error;security;attachment:organization:error_usage_exceeded



That is a response from Sentry telling you that they are rate limiting error ingestion for Reddit, probably because they have a lot of errors at the moment.


There is also a DDPA (Distributed Digital Preservation "Attack") ongoing that maybe make things worse too.



Definitely smells like some sad reddit mod got upset and is enacting "payback".


Could be the government. Telecom is impacted as well.
