Day FOUR of the GitHub web assault: Activists point fingers at ‘China’s global censorship’

With the GitHub distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack nearing its fifth day of bombardment, the code-sharing upstart said it is holding up well under fire.

The site said as of Monday afternoon, Pacific Time, it is still operating at 100 per cent, despite a continuing flow of malicious traffic to its servers. GitHub said the attack “has evolved,” but wouldn’t provide any further information.
