Old news i know, but I was thinking about the Estonia DDOS attack in 2007 this morning. I haven't heard of another MASSIVE DDOS attack on any other country or entity but this type of "warfare" is one avenue worth exploring for small countries. Ok, I know the main suspect is Russia and Russia is not necessarily a "small country" but this attack seems like a cheap, doable and effective way to defend your coutry from another country (unless the other country is a God damn island inhabited by 3 crabs and 10 incestuous islanders)
I know that the U.S. military has some type of facility that could be used for this type of attack so I'm sure they're on board and thinking of a similar attack on another country (am I right to presume they've thought about this?). However, a small country could, i guess have a team of people to create a downloadable software that they could let people (nationalists? like minded anarchists?) put on their computers to automate attacks on a particular target (hostile country? or hapless country) So these are just random thoughts, no expert opinion, just products of an active imagination, but it is a scary and wonderful idea at the same time isn't it?
P.S. sorry for the long updates (yes to all ahmmm 2 of you, ok, u mom, no? fuck! ok so no one's going to read this shit) but I was busy at work making money and shit
