[AusNOG] Network Stress Test Results - Frightening speeds of 900+ mbits

[Peter Betyounan]

Spin up a swarm of 50 or so EC2 instances and write a few lines of code.
Press a button and sit back and watch. Many companies already do this the
legal way, I am not too happy about advertising these methods to places
like whirlpool which in turn is just empowering kids who think it's fun and
cheap. Even if you educated one single person on what a booter is the
damage is done already.
