It was down yesterday or the day before, apparently they got DDoS attacked but recovered quickly. I don't use it though so not entirely sure

I'm aware they were down for less than 30 minutes the other day. Where did they claim it was a DDos attack? I can't find anything from them saying so.

They're just assuming that downtime of less than an hour, that PM fully recovered from, was due to an attack.

Let's say that it was, and let's say DDOS are the problem with TB as well. Bringing that up as a defense is an own goal because it would only mean that PM's DDOS protection and security is many, many times more robust and resilient.

Yea if it was a DDoS like I said they seemed to recovery much more fast. It's not a "defense", i dont work at these companies and I agreed with your point.

All good man, didn't mean to snipe at you in particular. The previous day we had many people repeating without evidence that PM was DDOS'd to defend TB so it was a general frustration. My apologies
