Sparkfun.com had their second annual free-day this morning, and as usual, iMOTOR walks away empty handed because their servers are inundated.
They’re giving away $150,000 of free merch (up to $100 per person) to whoever can get through.
Is there any strategy for trying to get into a server when elevendy billion other people are trying to?
What lets one person through during a DoS and not another?
