This type of virtual aggression is based on sending a lots of apps to a given page, which means the server can’t respond to all of them and therefore it seems collapsed. That is when all the users who want to browse the site – without being able to distinguish the fake ones from the real ones – cannot do so and, failing that, they see a legend that reports an error.
