Suspect behind the WoW Classic DDoS attacks has been identified and arrested
Just under two weeks ago, multiple WoW realms were taken offline by an unknown attacker. Overwatch players also reported issues when trying to join games, with some people getting kicked out of matches and getting stuck on the rejoin match screen. On Sept. 8, the Overwatch League playoff broadcast was even affected by another wave of attacks. Blizzard addressed the issue on its forums, saying that it was going to take the steps necessary to fix the problem and get all of the affected services back online.

The DDoS attacks caused numerous disruptions across both World of Warcraft's current retail version as well as World of Warcraft Classic over the weekend of September 7-8, two weeks after Classic's launch. Legal action against those responsible for DDoS attacks has become increasingly common in recent years. Some examples include a man responsible for a DDoS attack against Daybreak Games sentenced to two years in prison, and a Romanian man sentenced to US federal prison for a 2010 attack against Blizzard.
Many DDoS attacks are not particularly sophisticated, and can be perpetrated by maliciously-minded gamers showing off to their buddies with relative ease. But the financial damage and inconvenience caused by a DDoS attack can be considerable, and in the past has sometimes resulted in the perpetrators being imprisoned for multiple years.
Blizzard has had its hands full in protecting World of Warcraft, including trying to keep World of Warcraft Classic a fair experience by stopping a shady farming method and filing a copyright infringement lawsuit against a Chinese company for a blatant rip-off.
