Stupid DOS tricks

So the idea was to DOS DNS so that all of the domain names would be un-resolvable but due to the massive amount of backup systems in place and the general configuration of the Internet the attack was pretty much non-existent.

"Traffic from several Internet service providers have been slightly delayed, but because the domain name system is spread out and because the 13 root servers are the last resort for address searches, the attack had almost no effect on the Internet itself. "

Better luck next time
