Coincidentally, large tech companies have been conducting mass layoffs and claim they're going to rely on AI much more to replace junior developers.

By similar thinking, you could blame large tech companies if they hired too many juniors.

That does seem to be a coincidence, as the recent outages making headlines (including this one according to early reports) have been associated with huge traffic spikes. It seems DDoS are reaching a new level.
