Why is is nonsense? If I had a huge budget and governmental access, and orders to build an ultimate weapon for the internet, that’s what I would do. Find the countries best manufacturer of switches, and have them construct a box that does nothing more than DoS attacks - enter target IP and attack type. […]

you’re right in this instance; however, hackers are actually very useful in a war. As an example, during the first Gulf War Americans set up intercept stations along the Saudi border, and hacked encrypted communication channels between Iraqi commanders and central command - they would literally ask the Iraqis what was wrong, posing as […]

I am Liberal, (duh) so what if I like Free education, which any intelligent nation pursues.
So what if I like Blanket medical care, how it is delivered is up to the people but it should always be there and be affordable no matter what!
So what If like the idea of good governance for the better […]

@Tiak
E) I certainly hope not,
but with bad luck DDoS may well kill people during a war.
For example if life saving information does not get relayed because of it.
F) It may also kill their own solidiers

G) Does he think that he can trust an application after testing it […]

First I have to say overloading some government website, serves little purpose. Unless Georgian government used they public website to pass orders to they troops - I can not possibly see what is the use. Properly designed sites don’t DOS.
Funny, total n00b author think he learned cyber warfare. This is soo bogus.

Basically he is saying that the Digg Effect makes you a hacker

Basically he is saying that the Digg Effect makes you a hacker…. Sorry No!
Also what good is being a hacker during an actually war. Even if they managed to take down all of the Georgian owned and operated websites no one would care.
Military resources and government communication is not dependent on the public […]

I wasnt aware that Bush had absolute power globally over internet protocol and it better be fixed Right Now, or else you’ll be executed at dawn.
But I guess, as with everything in the course of the past 4.5 billion years, whatever went bad that you dont like… its all Bushes fault.
Sorry but America is not […]

I don’t think that this is the way cyber warfare is working

I don’t think that this is the way cyber warfare is working.Sure, if you get enough people to crush down a web-server you might “win”, but anyway the real problems are botnets causing really huge DDOS attacks from anonymous sources. (Also look at the articles comments on slate.) I doubt whether you can really get […]

dirk, no one believes bush himself did anything, people attribute those things to the administration behind him, who are quite intelligent and have had questionable motives for almost everything they have said and done in the last few years.
You also slipped in all those random conspiracy theories as if people who think another patriot act […]
