Re: [tor-talk] Unusual Tor's spikes in Egypt and Turkey on 28th August



I do believe it is some sort of attack.  Perhaps botnet activity?

Hi, Faffa here.

Trying so hard to understand the problem with those spikes. Since I have
the impression that it's not a human activity, one option I was discussing
with some friends is that it could be a strategy to force connections into
a specific node, by saturating the others. Does it make any sense to you?
