Keith Alexander, NSA Chief, once blamed his late arrival at a Washington event to a DDoS (distributed denial of service) hacking attack on city street lights.... Wow.

That was a joke, as the article points out. As in, all the lights happened to be timed such that he was denied from moving.

more like a "serial denial of service"

Got a source? That sounds so incredible I almost want it to be true.
