This global DDoS attack is just the beginning.

IMHO, the USA will come to rue the day they “gave away” the Internet.


Boy do I second your comments on this...

I wish more freepers had taken this more seriously...I spent better part of 2 weeks trying to post news, phone numbers, and updates/alerts, call Congressmen for updates, etc... Sadly Very few cared! :( Eh not enough to get off the forum and make some calls/write some letters.

Instead, many sad not going to happen, we will build a better internet, Trump will fix it, etc...

I would have thought we could stop this in an election year and was really hopeful :(

We are going to be paying the price for a long time...

Computer and network security are a big part of my daily work. Oracle released the new Java 1.8 Update 111 a couple days ago. All of my computers with Java installed were updated. The ones supporting my work were particularly painful as Atlassian and the Jenkins software distribution come with a JVM integrated, but never patched or updated. The preferred approach is a system wide JAVA_HOME. That way one update covers everything.

I took it seriously but when McCain and Flake won’t listen to us about anything else, why bother?

I agree completely but I don’t see how those of our part could have taken it more seriously. None of those who should have cared were interested for some (probably crooked) reason I can’t fathom.

Obama was determined to give the internet away. Obama is trying to do as much damage to this country as possible before he leaves office and this is just part of it.

Obama was born sown into a sack of hate.
