Major Distributed Denial of Service on Mauritius Telecom equipment
On 19 July 2021 at 11:30, an abnormal (i.e. very large) number of requests were sent to the Domain Name Servers (DNS) of Mauritius Telecom from abroad. This Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) made DNS unresponsive for people using Mauritius Telecom as Internet Service Provider.
DNS is used to translate the name of a website (e.g. www.mu.undp.org) into an IP address (e.g. 3.219.3.49). If DNS is not working properly, people cannot access websites and mobile apps are also impacted (as they use DNS internally).
Normal DNS service was restored at 16:30.
At 8:00 the next day (20 July 2011), another DDOS attack happened but customers were minimally impacted.
I like the idea of 30 km/h
One thing I found great when driving in France a few years ago was speed being limited to 30 km/h in city centers, near schools, etc.
It makes things safer for pedestrians but also allows the driver to have much less stress.
I would welcome this initiative in Mauritius as well.
Especially given that the cruise control on my Hyundai Elantra works great at 30 km/h. Even less stress for me.
