These are not the same as previous Cloudflare "blips". These
are sustained Cloudflare 525s preventing all access for minutes
or hours at a time.
I'm also now seeing browser 525 responses along with the
Cloudflare ones.
I can document times & duration going forward if that would
help.

Looks like there was a wave from 2:30am to 4:30 am CST time. It
is probably a mass amount of bots.

We have been getting a bunch of cloudflare errors in the past 24
hours. I assume a new wave of bot attacks, but posting for
notification and confirmation.

It's been SSL Handshake failed, I'll ask peeps to note the error
code so I can pass it along to you.

NBT (California):
"I've been getting the Cloudflare/handshake error, error code
525. I got it about 3 times in the last 5 minutes.
It has a little list, browser, internet and site. Each time it
says haxnuts is the issue."
Me: 3 errors while trying to view the list on awesome ratings,
all 525 errors.
Paloma (DC/MD/VA area):

the time.
I did get one, and I don't recall the code, which said something
along the lines of the cite having problems/not found. It
was[i] not[/i] the cloudflare page - and I will be sure to note
exactly what appears if I get it again. [img alt=:)

[color=#000000][size=2][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica,

handshake errors multiple times in recent days. Unlike the
problem a couple weeks ago, when I could not connect for hours
at a time, these tend to resolve pretty quickly and F5 (Refresh)
usually gets me back."[/font][/size][/color]
