SHOULD DDOS ATTACKS BE RECOGNIZED

What's a DDOS Attack?A DDOS Attack is in which a multitude of compromised system
attack a single target,thereby causing denial of
normal service of the target.The flood of incoming messages to the target essentially forces the target subject to shut down.This type
of attack is form of online strike i can comfortably say.

    Remember when there was a DDOS attacks on WordPress sites?Here is the link in case you
missed .DDOS (Distributed Denial Of service)
attacks can result in Heavy losses,especially if
they’re launched against the website of a
company that operates under online service for
business operations. However, as far as
hacktivist attacks are concerned, I don’t know of
any operation relying on DDOS attacks that has
made a difference, one that has influenced
political or business decisions.
For instance, a few years ago, Anonymous
hackers launched a massive DDOS attack against
PayPal after the company decided to stop
processing donations to WikiLeaks. But paypal
did not change its
stand on the issue.
Then there was the mega upload ddos
attack.DDOS attacks were launched but mega
upload site was never brought up.
Should DDOS attacks be considered legal or no?
In my own view,i think These types of attacks
should be
treated as legal as they are a form of
protesting against justices just like
‘occupy’protest.
Picture this,a business company is acting
unfairly to its customers,legal means have been
used to deal
with the issue but the business company is not
able to stoop low to the suggestions being
made.What do you do?A ddos attack is
launched and after that the business will have
changed its way of operating.Feels like
blackmail?From the company's
perspective.There have been massive ddos
attacks in the recent past.Remember the
wordpress ddos attack?
Over 160000websites were held .Another
massive campaign that relied on DDOS attacks
was the one launched against several US
government and anti-piracy
outfits after the shutdown of
Megaupload in January 2012. The sites of the
US Department of Justice, the FBI,
the White House, HADOPI, RIAA, MPAA, the
Belgian Anti-Piracy Federation, and the Warner
Music Group’s websites were shut
down. While this was one of the biggest DDOS
attack operations launched by hacktivists,no one
said “OK, let’s restore Megaupload
because people are unhappy.”
Shortly after the Megaupload DDOS
attacks,members of the Anonymous movement
submitted a petition to the White House asking
the Obama administration to make ddos attacks
legal.But the obama administration would hear
none of
that.However,whats peculiar is the aftermath of
ddos attacks?There is always no change.Its time
ddos be taken seriously and be recognised if its
done on a right purpose not a
selfish purpose
