 Ah, but I said "poetic justice".  Like for like.  I am hearing DDoS

prevent Denial of access. It just causes additional GB to be used and
paid for.

 Fraudulent CC use is an entirely different issue...

when is retaliating bad practices with more bad practises that are 
hardly likely to take out the real target considered a good idea..?
