First ever 1Tbps DDoS attack, involving over 150,000 devices

Can someone please correct the article? It reads "This attacks follows shortly after a 620Gbps DDoS attack took down KrebsOnSecurity" which is not accurate. If you refer to the original publication of the attack by Krebs at https://krebsonsecurity.com/2016/09/krebsonsecurity-hit-with-record-ddos/ it reads "The attack did not succeed thanks to the hard work of the engineers at Akamai, the company that protects my site from such digital sieges.". Krebs is a highly respected and longstanding security journalist so I would take his word for it.
