You may indeed need a "get out of jail" card if one of those "all the other
ISPs along the way" decides to make an issue of it. The company you're working
with can only promise that *they* won't press charges. What their upstream
decides to do is out of their control.

That will only send out packets as fast as your single pipe can send, which
will probably *not* make everything unresponsive. Hint - only (roughly) one out
of every 65,635 packets will be pointed at the host at 198.168.5.16, for
example - and I would *hope* that said host can handle an added 65K packet
every 0.6 seconds or so...
Oh, and line speed for a 10G connection is 155K 64K packets per second, so
your command won't even fill *one* computer's pipe.
