However this can be confirmed to originate from them as the tweet has not been deleted as of now.

8Chan was formed in 2013 and has been praised and panned for its very liberal views.
It rose to fame after the famous GamerGate controversy which revolved around the subject of sexism on video games.
However now with 8Chan DDoS attack, CloudFlare seems to be not enough to tackle such kind targeted attacks.
Lizard Squads above tweet suggests that the renters of this particular attack have rented it for 24 hours.
Who is behind this?
Obviously, someone DDoSing a small community like 8chan.co is very low on the priority list for law enforcement.
yo do not believe rumors on Twitter that it was Brianna Wu or Muslims or JIDF.
They are based on nothing and are being spread by people who want Twitter followers and nothing else.
