Botnets are a major source of evil on the Internet, from spam, phishing attacks, virus propagation and denial-of-service attacks to the stealing of financial information and other illegal activity. Does disbanding them raise legal and ethical implications?

Linux is coded much more efficient than Windows, unlimiting the performance.
Personally from my own experience when I send the command for a DOS attack with a Windows Botnet lets say of maybe 500 Computers... It does not come close to what 20 Linux Computers can do.
