Bluesky said its recent service disruption was caused by a distributed denial-of-service, or DDoS, attack that flooded the site with junk traffic and overwhelmed its resources. The decentralized social platform said it has upgraded its defenses and is continuing to monitor the situation. Security researchers said attackers with an Iranian background have claimed responsibility for the incident. The episode marks the second large-scale DDoS attack to hit Bluesky in recent months. In April, the platform suffered a prolonged outage after a similar traffic flood. It is still unclear whether the two attacks are connected. The development was reported by TechCrunch and cited by Techub.
