What? The site just came back and now someone’s planning to attack it? What do you plan now, Mike, will you comply? What if he DDoSed you, what would you do?
If I get DDoSed, you’ll know who did it.
Well, good luck.
The largest DDoS attacks ever observed were around 40Gbps. That’s enough to massively impact the Internet backbone.
If Ryan tries a 70Gbps attack, his world record attempt will be felt across the Internet.
Doesn’t seem like any hacker would be dumb enough to use their actual hacker alias. But, there really is no evidence, that could hold up in court and go above “reasonable doubt,” so it wouldn’t really matter either. Still aren’t suppose to use your hacker alias on a blog though, so it could be someone else using it.
