As most of you have probably noticed; the server that
WordswithMeaning.org is available on has been experiencing lots of performance
issues lately and due to contractual disputes that have occurred with our
dedicated server providers and therefore they have decided to discontinue relations
with international customers such as WordswithMeaning.org
With or without our say, the website’s data will be
temporarily transferred to London, UK within the next 72 hours.
As per our
tweet this morning; we will be publishing a news story today regarding the
alleged hacking and DDOS that occurred against the Swedish servers we lease.
The culprit was apparently acting out in relation to the Anonymous hacking
spree that occurred on the 5
th of November. We therefore see this as
a friendly fire, a careless one.
We have not received any public comment from Anonymous in
relation to this accusation and therefore we aren’t pointing any fingers –
however, this has caused great concern for WordMean and our provider
Hostinator.
This issue has caused a great inconvenience to the WordMean editors and affiliates.
