「 The hacked systems that get subsumed into the botnet are mostly consumer-grade routers, security cameras, digital video recorders and other devices operating with insecure and outdated firmware, and/or factory-default settings. Aisuru’s owners are continuously scanning the Internet for these vulnerable devices and enslaving them for use in distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks that can overwhelm targeted servers with crippling amounts of junk traffic 」

:blobcat: DDoS Botnet Aisuru Blankets US ISPs in Record DDoS – Krebs on Security

「 The world’s largest and most disruptive botnet is now drawing a majority of its firepower from compromised Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices hosted on U.S. Internet providers like AT&T, Comcast and Verizon, new evidence suggests 」

「 Experts say the heavy concentration of infected devices at U.S. providers is complicating efforts to limit collateral damage from the botnet’s attacks, which shattered previous records this week with a brief traffic flood that clocked in at nearly 30 trillion bits of data per second 」

Seems my unknown enemy has topped up his botnet account again and is sending thousands of IP addresses to try to brute-force their way in to my mailserver. Blocketyblocking all of them :)

Partial list of the IP addresses trying to guess passwords to get access to my mail server in the past 24 hours.

Website owner? Not keen on the Mellowtel browser library building a botnet of untraceable scrapers from unwitting users who are using a browser plugin that contains Mellowtel? I've raised a GitHub issue for them to explain how much contempt they have for our consent. Join in, politely, make them look like the jerks they are. https://github.com/mellowtel-inc/mellowtel-js/issues/41
