If your internet service has been running slower than usual lately, your cable company may not be the one to blame: a massive distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack that began on March 18 against the website of Spamhaus, a European volunteer spam-fighting organization, has increased to the point that it's now affecting websites around the globe, including Netflix, according to The New York Times and the BBC. Experts said it was the largest attack of its kind publicly identified, and Spamhaus told the BBC that law enforcement in five different countries were investigating the attacks.
