A cyber collective known as PoodleCorp announced on Twitter it was behind the action, but this claim is yet to be verified. PoodleCorp has recently targeted high profile YouTubers such as Pewdiepie, according to Gearnuke. A DDOS, or Distributed Denial of Service, is a way troublemakers crash servers by flooding them with so many requests every second that they cannot cope. The account also retweeted a post by a user claiming to be the leader of PoodleCorp.  "Just was a lil test, we will do something on a larger scale soon," said the post by user XO <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/no.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":no:" title="No    :no:" data-shortname=":no:" /><img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/no.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":no:" title="No    :no:" data-shortname=":no:" /> </blockquote>
