I can't go into any specific details due to legal issues but there is this forum I visit and this kid keeps attacking the site (DDOS) so its often down for hours. They have spent a fortune on trying to keep him out but nohting seems to work. The mods have written to his ISP and they just basicaly laughed in their faces, the police don't seem to be bothered either. We all know his name and address as another forum member rather foolishy hacked into his email account and got all his details. Isn't it about time laws where stepped up to take things like DDOS attacks more seriously? The attacks always happen in the holidays because he isn't stupid enough to carry out the attacks on his JANET connection at university.
