A critique of BBC News reporting focuses on a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack involving Spamhaus and Cyberbunker. The hosts argue that the BBC and other mainstream outlets use hyperbolic military terminology, such as "nuclear bomb" and "machine gun," to describe internet plumbing issues. They characterize the event as a PR effort by Cloudflare that was misrepresented by the media as a threat to the entire internet's "motorway system."
