Service Attacks Today?

Getting lots off 503s today, from mostly big sites like USA Today:


"Error 503 Maximum threads for service reached
Maximum threads for service reached

Guru Mediation:

Varnish cache server"



Is this fallout from the big Russian hack?

USA Toady? No great loss. However I haven't noticed anything unusual.

Also Reddit, again no big loss there. Looks like they are back now.

Oh well, as long as they don't hit ET. Then I'd be pissed!

I know I have a suspicious mind but isn't it just so convenient for the security companies ?
I expect they know hackers and vice versa. The hackers would be tempted to sell the antidote code wouldn't they ?
