Kevin Poulsen, SecurityFocus 2004-08-26

A Massachusetts businessman allegedly paid members of the computer underground to launch organized, crippling distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks against three of his competitors, in what federal officials are calling the first criminal case to arise from a DDoS-for-hire scheme.

i think if you use a computer, you should know how it works, and, how to correctly use it, if not, you are ASKING to have the vulnerabilities of your computer 'tested'. i think if you have a car, and don't know how to fix, you shouldn't own it. people in our society are too ignorant, and the power is not in our hands, it is in the hands of those who know how things work. that said, "Cyber Terrorism" is just another ploy of the patriot act to make more americans affraid of all of the terrorists in the world "that's right.. you might be a terrorist too!", so follow every law like you follow every commandment, give all information to the government, and FEAR them, for they have the power to destroy you! of course, this is yet another reason for the government to be able to "hack" people, and, for people to get their houses raid, for "hacking".. seems a bit shiesty if you ask me.. so, the point of all of this is, packetting and denial of service attacks ARE lame, and Should be stopped, but, you shouldn't have to be snitching to the FBI to stop them. you are all ignorant, and you are all terrorists, untill the government says otherwise, so fear your government, and fear the powers that be, for you have not done anything to help or hender them... so you are all just sheeple!
