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

[Andrew White]

>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.

Sorry Peter, I have to respectfully disagree with this.

Security via obscurity is rarely - if ever - the answer to the problem. If a kiddie wants to attack your network, they have Google at their hands to work out how. I see this as educating providers and operators rather than empowering kids. The site creators have already given them the power.

Cheers,

Andrew
