Remember all those DDOS Attacks?

Post by Cally Raven » Sat Apr 22, 2017 6:31 am

Saw this news post this morning, this is the git that stopped us playing Rs all those times in 2013 when we were having DDOS attacks!! It says Jagex had to spend £6mill to counteract his titanium stresser malware.
The programme had 112,000 registered users who were responsible for about 1.7 million "distributed denial of service" attacks on websites, including gaming sites such as RuneScape, Minecraft and Xbox Live.
The court heard there were about 25,000 attacks on RuneScape and the company which owns it spent £6m trying to defend itself.

Hmm, to actually have a brain and waste it this way...
