You should read the article. It’s a bit fluffy, but still a fascinating read that attaches a face to an idea.

I suspect it is already happening, but one has to believe organized crime will take over the basement of the internet at some point. Too much profit potential. The mistake this kid made was trying to run it from the United States.

The detachment of the internet meets murder like it’s all a video game. This will be an interesting movie.

Very good points. This was all being done by remote means, in a way which is normally fictional, which gave him the ability to detach himself from what he did.

Of course, he was a Ron Paul supporter and therefore used to living with contradictions, I guess.

Some serious hackers that I know of use stolen credit cards to pay for amazon servers. They route to the stolen servers through several layers of hacked computers. The servers being used for the attacks are temporary and are pulled down after short periods. Makes them very hard to catch unless you get inventive.
