It's down for me. Search doesn't return anything on Shutterstock. It's unfortunate because these are peak days for microstock and every hour can have an impact on sales.

Why peak days?

Um .. because September/October is the high season for stock image industry? Hello?

We are under cyber attack. A bunch of websites doesn't work including Twitter, Netflix, Spotify, Weebly, Wix, and many more. http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2016/10/21/cyber-attack-takes-down-east-coast-netflix-spotify-twitter/92507806/ (http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2016/10/21/cyber-attack-takes-down-east-coast-netflix-spotify-twitter/92507806/)

It's kinda of working, but it's spotty. I don't expect many sales for the rest of the day if this continues. There is a massive DDOS attack on a DNS provider. A lot of major sites are down because of it.

Shutterstock seems to be OK but Canva is definitely down.  Haven't checked any others.  Hope this gets sorted out soon.

If somebody needs an image or a clip I guess he or she would buy it anyway day or two later, in spite of those "high seasons".

It depends how urgent the project is. If they need to wrap up a project fast they will get the images/videos they need from another vendor. And we all know there is no shortage of vendors in this industry. It's bad for Shutterstock anyway.

The cyber attack was an east coast occurrence in the US, so SS & P5 is down for me. Other sites I use in the New York area are also down.

It's bad for Shutterstock but I wouldn't mind if they buy the same video on Videoblocks :) Why not upload to all agencies at the same time.
