I wouldn't be surprised if it were paid by the companies currently battling them over copyright. Bunch of greedy bastards.
What I wanna know is how companies get away with stuff like this.
Getting to the bottom of a cyber attack isn't... Impossible? It just takes resources.
You just pay random people on the internet to do it, it's fairly easy if you know where/what to ask for.
Traceable.
Just about anything is traceable. The trick is making it not worth the effort.
Ask eBay how that towing that line worked out for them.
See sending ip packets is quite a lot easier that sending pig fetuses
Yes, but far more traceable!
I mean, if eBay couldt cover entrails...
That wouldn't make any sense.
