@remixtures@tldr.nettime.org This isn't "like" a DDoS attack it IS a DDoS attack.
Virtually every early example of a modern computer attack was originally someone just messing around or making a mistake (the first virus, worm, and DoS all come to mind) and to my knowledge all of those were tried on (and many found guilty to) serious hacking charges, so why shouldn't OpenAI? They shouldn't get to claim "well, your service should have been able to handle a DDoS" or "we're doing it for gain, though."
