Tweet storms on 9th Feb:
Pertaining to the above, what are the
a) mitigating/preventive measures we can put in place
esp if we're running Windows, Redhat+Suse Linux &
Solaris x86 with Juniper & Fortigate firewalls
b) How do we detect if we're being attacked by this
storm? if need be, we can take a snapshot of
system/network baseline & during the attack,
compare with the baseline
c) does it affect only social media or it could affect
other apps/infra aspects as well?
Pls provide URLs/links with authoritative information

:) your twitter users will tell you. Another way is to configure a workstation as a proxy and setup your Phone to connect through that proxy.
Once connected, start wireshark on the PC, sent some tweets to the account on your Phone and look in wireshark where the data came from. This IP adress should give you an idea on how to divert data overflow from and yes divert into the big black hole we call drop.

In case you want to be prepared have your ISP's alerted so they have guys in place to divert wrongly traffic and also have your firewall guys be ready to divert the traffic.
If directed directly to you and diverted in time not much will happen. Else it will affect all behind the internet tunnel.
If twitter is targeted i expect they will divert and filter.
