It sounds like some people forgot a `Vary: Cookie` header while they were all running around with their hair on fire because of the DDoS.

I, and many other ops-ish people I know, cringed at the obvious caching error that seemed like the most likely culprit.
The "in the middle of a DDoS" makes it make a lot more sense, and while this is still a cringeworthy situation, the cringing at least on my part is now more sympathetic than horrified.
