Kapil Sibal: Internet is not affected in India because of the Spamhaus Cyberbunker war

[Sushubh]

Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal has said that India was largely unaffected by the Internet slowdown caused by what is being called the ‘largest ever’ cyber attack along with an unfortunately timed under-sea cable cut. “Only BSNL services were affected in south India; websites slowed down by 3 to 4 percent”, said the Telecom Minister to NDTV.
The cyber attack which affected Internet services in large areas of Western Europe and some parts of Asia, occured when Spamhaus, a London and Geneva-based non-profit group which helps weed out unsolicited “spam” messages for email providers, said it had been subjected to “distributed denial of service” (DDoS) attacks on an unprecedented scale for more than a week.

I guess he has not been informed of the problems caused by the cable cut.

I wonder if BSNL etc are not fixing the problem because it results in an automated slowdown on Facebook.
