Potential cyberattack knocks out two-thirds of China’s .com domains

China suffered a major Internet outage yesterday, which is said to have knocked out access to two-thirds of the.com domain websites in the country. An unidentified issue caused a large number of websites to be unreachable for at least one hour. During that period, Internet users were redirected to a website owned by Dynamic Internet Technology, a company that works with the Falun Gong, a Buddhist group that offers VPN software to counteract China’s Internet censorship.
