uhh.. what the hell are you talking about? thanks like saying why should a
kid throw a snow ball at a passing car when he could throw a huge rock.  yes
the attacks do seem senseless, however rooting yahoo and amazon would be
senseless also.  you obviously dont seem to understand the nature of these
types of attacks.

hi,

I was just wondering that The latest attacks on the popular web sites had
only
one objective behind it: to bring the web sites and render it useless for
the
period of attack. If these hacker really do want to create massive scale
problems why not hack the root servers?!!!!!!!  This will bring down the
whole
internet.
