Require Bohemia to Compensate Server Owners for Attack Induced Downtime


Require Bohemia to Compensate Server Owners for Attack Induced Downtime
The Issue
The recent cyber attack, allegedly by Russian hackers, caused substantial downtime to Bohemia, adversely affecting their online community servers. (Which Bohemia is not openly telling us.) It's not just about lost playtime, but the substantial financial burden faced by those of us who have servers, those who do setups and custom builds, who are losing revenue due to this unwarranted break in service. Bohemia needs to pay for it's hosting company Nitrado, responsible for maintaining these servers, so they can compensate for the downtime as a way of rectifying their inability to safeguard the systems from such attacks. Cybersecurity Ventures predicts that cybercrime will cost the world $6 trillion annually by 2021, almost double the cost in 2015 (source: Cybersecurity Ventures). Bohemia and its customer community should not bear the brunt of this growing problem. We call on Bohemia to provide credits equal to the time lost due to the cyber attacks. Regardless if your server had intermittent uptime. We need to be compensated from the start date. Show your support in holding Bohemia accountable by signing this petition.
