Agreed. Although I did spend some time today going over DDOS
and other attack response methods with my people. I figure
if I were Chinese, I'd be relayed into some clueless newbies new
1+ghz pentium with a fresh RedHat 7.0 install on a fast
connection INSIDE the US and then relay into other boxen from there
before really attacking. It may be a busy week, what about the
native 'elite' that decide this is the perfect cover for rampant
mayhem?
Remember when you trusted people on the 'net just a little bit?
