Thanks - that was a neat article. The best explanation of a DoS I’ve seen. Hope you sue them back into the Iron Age.

So Mediadefender finds Rev3’s distribution Bittorrent servers and starts injecting crap content into them to try and foul up the folks downloading “pirated” content—even though Rev3 had NO non-legit content on them at the time. Then when a Rev3 forum poster notes that they’ve got what looks like a pirated copy of Rambo on their BT tracker, Rev3 closes the back door. Mediadefender cries havoc and lets slip the SYN packets of war.

If the FBI does their job on this one, and if there’s any justice, Mediadefender is burnt toast.
