Question...are their hackers better than Elon’s hackers? If I was Elon I’d do some shock and awe on these luzers.

They better run & hide. This ain't the 1990s - Musk has tools at his disposal to hunt them down with they probably can't yet imagine. Not to mention the sort of powerful friends he has.

Don't mess with an Afrikaner-American who is the richest man in the world. He will have you
tracked. You will just disappear. No crime investiagation. You become just another "missing
person". Even Mr. Keen can't trace you.

I wish he could send something back at them that would fry their computers. They probably did something to make the attackers undistinguishable from normal users though.
They are scum.

This is war.
Musk knows that, he won’t be whining.
I think he can handle whatever comes his way.
But he seems smart enough to not publicly boast however he may have handled it because he doesn’t play by Marquess of Queensberry rules.

Geez, all Dark Storm's logo is missing is the swastika.
