Steam is down 12/23/16

Yeah, was getting ready to make my purchases and just noticed. Wonder if it is a hack or technical problem.

Went down around 10am EST.
Chatting with some of my friends and it just dropped connection. It's 3hrs and some odd minutes later now and still nothing.

By now it should be restored or well on its way. Some suggestion that sales' demands overflooded the system... I have a hard time believing that but maybe???...
 
Isn't it usually Sony that gets it worse and can't fix it for a week? Overwatch has had a lot of players c/o lag today, I wonder if there's a small attack happening there as well.

C/o? Care of?

Wtf is this, a text message? FFS...
 
its working for me now. at least for looking, i didnt try to buy anything.
 
The outage was probably intentional and Festivus-related, to avoid the Airing of Grievances. Or perhaps they did the Airing of Grievances and it brought the site down?
