The Akamai attacks started in the morning and it was detected by
Keynote Systems, a web tracking company that is able to track the load
and bandwidth on the Internet. According to Keynote they saw
an "Internet performance issue" this morning
...
They have tracked the attacker back to person that is at the Akamai
Technologies ISP. No other information has been given to us at this
time. We do not know if the FBI is working on this issue right now, but
we expect them to do so.
