Missed opportunity again? WTF 2009-06-08

So let me get this straight. The US has succeeded in de-peering multiple ISPs (Aprivo, McColo, 3FN) resulting in them shifting operations to other host providers, becoming more wary and resilient and distributed in their operations, and generally continuing their massive illegal frauds and malicious campaigns....

AND FOR WHAT.. Why the hell are we not seeing the FBI, state and local law enforcement, Secret Service, DHS and whoever else is freaking empowered to prevent this activity, from marching into their facility, arrested every employee for conspiracy, interrogating the hell out of them, and carting every digital device and storage device out of that place and running it through a fine tooth comb, combing through every single record, financial transaction they have and building a social targetable network of their staff, customers, management, and then putting an arrest on site warrant for them if they ever enter a European or US territory. Use all the info and build a case with the strongest maximum jail sentences, arrest people and force them to roll on their accomplices just like you do any other criminal gang, organized crime, or drug network.

For a Network to have 3k c&C's, child porn and fraud operations to be concentrated in ONE place AT ONE TIME and have no one arrested or that entire digital facility be LOCKED UP and designated a Forensic Quarantine zone is utterly ridiculous.

I would have half expected since this location has been known for months they could have at least infiltrated the organization, their systems, or the company itself and run an intel operation on them.

Am I the only one that is recognizing a complete effup with regards to the priority of these events and the missed opportunities?

Surely someone reading this story will lend an intelligent response.
