Anyone who supports Slush's attack on BTCG is wrong.....
Actually this wasn't an attack, just a test. I didn't want to hurt btcguild and I was ready to switch DNS back asap in case of any troubles.
Semantics.....
Someone is firing a machine gun at you and the bullets are piercing and damaging you, so you knowingly turn the firing gun onto to someone else to see if they bleed too ?
....because you THOUGHT they might be bullet proof ? Or the attacker would remove his finger from the trigger once focused on someone else ?
Let's see THAT argument stand up in a court of law.
Its only semantics if you're 1. completely retarded. 2. In with the botnet. 3. Have no fucking understanding of how dnsing works and the FACT, that has been pointed out that the BOTNET OP was ACTIVELY updating IP's to keep his attacks exactly where he wanted them!!!!!
To the rest of it, thats for those involved to make amends, argue, hug, or whatever. Its no one heres god damn place to point and judge any of the parties here who are all VICTEMS no matter which way you slice the 'semantics' pie......
