Feedly is being hit by a DDoS. Feedly was touted as the replacement to Google Reader when Google decided to pull the plug on it. And a lot of people moved over to Feedly as a result. I was one of them.

Criminals are attacking feedly with a distributed denial of service attack (DDoS). The attacker is trying to extort us money to make it stop. We refused to give in and are working with our network providers to mitigate the attack as best as we can.

We are working in parallel with other victims of the same group and with law enforcement.

We want to apologize for the inconvenience. Please know that you data is safe and you will be able to re-access your feedly as soon as the attack is neutralized
