A DDoS attack isn’t the only problem.

Of all the places to do this to, why The Archive?
with as long as this has been going on it really surprises me that nothing has come out as a motive. it seems kind of pointless to do this sort of thing and not make your intentions known
maybe it's a government or organization upset that they are keeping archives of things they don't like
Apparently, from a different article, the hackers did it because 'america bad'.
Which is fine as a message I guess, but picking this website is dumb.The hacktivist group SN_BLACKMETA has claimed responsibility and cites US support of Israel as the motivation.
That's extremely stupid. that doesn't even make sense
No way they aren't trolling
This isn't the first time this group has done something like this and they seem to have been pretty consistent in their messaging.
