    I have more reason to despise BOL than anyone, but it's likely not that simple.

    IF what they are saying is true, then they really wouldn't know a timeframe.

    What's the competing theory? They shut down for a day to miss out on earning 5% on millions of volume? They are probably going to be working around the clock to be ready for the weekend. That's why these attacks always happen near the weekend.

    If they really are missing out on millions then you would think they would have actual real web security like every other major corporation.... Companies get hacked all the time... they dont shut down 100% tho... and it keeps happen at BOL...

    They should say what it is then. Tell us it’s a DDOS attack. Tell us someone may have gotten our information so that people who used cards can get ahead of that. It’s been poorly handled so far with an update that’s not much of an update.

    They have to rely on Latin Americans, its amazing their website ever loads. Have you ever had a tech support issue w BOL? Absolute nightmare. They must think browser cookies are some kind of magical mushroom that solves any problem.

    DDOS has nothing to do with personal info getting out. And if you used a credit card... good god!!!

    Uhhh I’m saying say that’s it a DDOS attack or say if it’s a ransomware type. attack. Clearly different? They haven’t been transparent with what kind of attack happened was my point.

    I think it's pretty obvious they simply don't have anything else to update or don't want to.

    That's all we really know but I agree with you, they may not know shit themselves.

    I give you credit for getting out there. I would never laugh or snicker at a fat person trying to get exercise. If someone did, they should be punched and have their teeth knocked out.

    Homophobes are fucktards and stupid people. It's 2020. They should get with the program. My response is the same as it is to fatpockets. If someone bullies queers, then they should have their teeth kicked in too.

    I knew it was time to lose weight when I recorded a simple video and I could hear myself breathing heavily for no reason. Sometimes I slip up like last night with the Dominos.

    I predict the site is back up and working, but slowly, by midday tomorrow. If it's not working by Sunday afternoon then it could be a while.

    Maybe someone who they screwed on a line move had enough and decided to blow up their servers.

    I severely doubt it's a DDOS attack. DDOS attacks don't last this long. They use cloudflare to help mitigate DDOS attacks and the first errors I saw with the site was cloudflare not able to access the underlying BOL servers.

    I don't know where they locate their servers but I assume if if was a major equipment failure at their data center you would hear of other sites impacted.

    This is like, when the Japanese were in the middle of bombing Pearl Harbor, demanding that the US commander in charge provide an ETA on when he would make it stop. It's not like someone spilled coffee on a server and they just need to swap it out. They are fighting an active attack here. The situation may not be entirely under their control.

    Do you want them to just make up a bullshit time to please you temporarily? Or should they continue working on the problem and update us when they have something solid?

    Yes, they are one of the largest deposit books right now. And this is why they're such a nice target for attackers.

    It has to be waaaay more than that. There are individual players who have well over 6 figures in there. Now, think about how many customers they have besides those big guns.
