Botnets, "server test" services, heck even cloudflare is easy to bypass. There is nothing you can't bypass in Computers, its just a matter of time.

You seem to be a genius /sarcasm , why don't you explain how the script kiddies are DDoSing then?

[ryandanielt]

why not DDoS something like Google^tm instead?

A better suggestion would have been facebook, that is one site that if properly DDOS'ed would really wreck peoples lives.
People have come to waste more then 50% of there time by reading garbage and nonsence that other people write on there.

If these people were looking to ddos something to affect people then they would definitely choose a target like that, but in this case its a bunch of low life kids with nothing better to do and no real money or hardware to perform something so large as that they need to attack smaller sites that mean something.


Why does the big fish pick on the little fish rather then protect him? Easy score?

Bro are you trolling? botnets are real, very real
Server test sites are very real, try booter.org or booter.xyz and attack yourself or your own site
Cloudflare is nothing, just need a good resolver

Always seemed low-tech and pointless to use booter sites, kind of script-kiddy, no? Although I am sure there more advanced forms of DoS attacks out there.

EDIT: As for cloudfare, many ways around that or you could try old-fashioned brute forcing DNS I guess.

Botnets are a figment of people's imagination.

Everyone claims they know someone that runs botnets.

No one can name them.

That's why unicorn like botnet herders are never caught, they don't exist.

Server issues, bad configurations, switch issues, Routers....ISP issues, load balance problems are diagnosed as DDoS and Botnets wrongfully.

Really. There was a ddos attack on this forum, when? And by the way, I don't think anyone in the world has the power to take down google.

Bitcointalk was DDOSed several times in the past. At one instance, the attacker used a malicious SSL certificate to capture the information, DDOS attacks were most probably used to mask this.

Bitcointalk does not use cloudflare or any other DDOS protection since the provider can potentially do a MITM attack. There are hardware to filter attacks but it would be great if they have various other servers with huge bandwidth to dilute the attack.

Who the hell would attack a forum, especially this site.

You get Perma banned if you did.
