Hard to imagine someone taking ebay down. Truly impressive in an odd kind of way. I suspect there will be repercussions

That link is getting mangled somewhere along the line, possibly by the monetization package you're running. I can't post the correct one via direct link, either, but you can go to the eBay [advertising link, not mine] home page and add "/sts" to the end of the URL to get there.

The only sites that are hard to take down are Amazon, MS, Google, and Facebook. For everyone else, when there exists 1tb/s botnets, it is pretty easy to at least temporarily take them down.
