@jwildeboer @Gargron That is because they hackers are currently targeting mastodon.social. The next attack could be against another instance. Would the extra work then be caused by that instance. No. In both cases it is caused by the hackers. What they want to do is to get us blaming each other, when it is the invader that is at blame.
@mastodonmigration @Gargron The hackers don't care about the Blame Game. They try to use loopholes and social engineering to get their stuff sent, is all. Making the fediverse and specifically mastodon more resilient and less attractive as a target — that IS our task.
