My WordPress still gets attacked, despite my visitors being practically null. As you can see, my visitors have declined by 50% since the attacks started happening. Whoever is doing it has succeeded, but I suppose they aren’t going to stop until my visitors are at zero. FYI, I don’t count the views because most of those are probably mine when I double-check the site or search for a previous post. I’ll admit that it’s discouraged me from posting. Most of the work that I’ve been doing is on YouTube (or Rumble) and working on Google Docs. I need to transfer some documents to my pages soon. Anyway, I appreciate those of you who continue to read my posts! Welcome to my new followers, as well!
The IP has changed but it’s still WordPress’ Automattic.
Yesterday, I was alerted by Netgear Armor that my device was under a DoS attack when I was trying to access my WordPress. I can only assume that someone has been attacking my site. This would explain why I haven’t been able to access my WordPress, yet I could access other WordPress sites.
I did some research into protecting my WordPress, from a denial-of-service attack, and there are a few ways to do it. One is with the use of plugins, but now you need at least a Creator account (which is $20 per month) to be able to use plugins with WordPress. Another is by using a content delivery network with DDoS mitigation capabilities. I chose to purchase an inexpensive web hosting plan (I’ve been planning on doing this anyway for the storage) with a CDN and DDoS mitigation.
If my assumption is correct and the cyberattacker(s) sees this, know that I have all of my research backed up. My web hosting service also backs up this blog.
I could just be paranoid, too. 🤷🏼♀️
Netizens in Hong Kong hailed the decision of US-funded Radio Free Asia (RFA) to shut down its Hong Kong office, calling it “another example of the color revolution failing in Hong Kong,” which also shows that this anti-China agency has a guilty conscience and has fled in panic.

I’m confused as to why my iPad Mini is connected to the router, rather than the bedroom satellite, though. 🤷🏼♀️ Oh well, mama always said that “beggars can’t be choosers”. 😹

It looks like they’ve worked on the notification, at least. 🙄
I’m still receiving the same automated message.
My bill is due, tomorrow. I’m going to see if I can get a credit to my account or something. They’ve done it before.
