Plus, if the IP addresses of the "military botnet" nodes are known &
public, it is trivial to packet filter them so as to render it basically

I haven't read a lot about the idea, but I think what I remember from
the recent story was that it would be planted on the other guy's
computers, i.e. in .ru or .cn
