D-dos Cheating / forced Disconnection to winn by time

I wonder what lichess will do about a new method of cheating, specially in Blitz and Bullet ? Lots of people use a weakness in Server-Software to inflict Ddos-Attack to their opponent. This forces the opponent to disconnect for some time, meanwhile he is at move and his time goes down.
I highly doubt that. How exactly would they be ddosing you?
Denial of service so i cant do moves and get disconnected. I dont believe that this is any technical problem, because it ALWAYS happens when i have advantage (material or position) in the match. Technical problem would occur in bad positions too.
How exactly would an user do this? A much more likely explanation is you experiencing internet issues.
This is nonsense. There's no way to get your opponent's IP. No way. Prove me wrong.

Even if you had their IP, you couldn't do anything with it. Here's mine: 88.184.4.183. Prove me wrong.
First, WHY i experience internet issues always when having advantage?
Second, I wont prove anything because its not ME to be a criminal /hacker.
I just watched one of your games and it said your connection was pretty bad (though not outright terrible) throughout the game (you were never better, but also not really much worse for most of the game). It only got better around the time you made a losing blunder and timed out with plenty of time left while mated in 1.
When you make outrageous statements you prolly want to try to back that up with something, anything.
This thread is so funny.

I have had those days myself, when I just can't seem to win.
There's someone at the door
There's someone calling me on the phone
The electricity fails for a millisecond and comes back
The laptop overheats and hangs
The internet plays a hand etc..

We call it karma...if you are destined to lose on a particular day, you are screwed
