Let me make sure I understand this...

A company that did an ongoing DoS attack against a spammers is getting pitty because they got DoS'ed back? And we should feel sorry that they could not stay in business after the attack?

Burning down a sex offender's house is still arson. DoS'ing a spammer is still a denial of service that impacts more than just the spammer.
