Wikispooks is an online wiki dedicated to documenting what Peter Dale Scott refers to as "deep politics" which are the politics of covert actors such as intelligence agencies. The site is a mixture of proven facts about actual conspiracies and covert operations, but can contain some unsubstantiated conspiracy theories as well.[1]
Site outage
In November of 2021, there was a 5 day outage from the 12th to the 17th.[2] Given the nature of the project, speculation abounded about possible censorship from the UK government, where the site is registered.[3][4][5] ProleWiki has independently confirmed that Wikispooks experienced an "advanced DDoS attack". They are continuing to investigate the specific origins of the attack.
Similar attacks had occurred earlier on the 26th of June, but these attacks only lasted for 8 hours. This 5 day outage marks an apparent intensification of attacks by unknown actors.
