Hackers bring down radio show's site

It sounds like a Distributed Denial Of Service attack (DDOS). One single bot-herder can control a whole botnet of infected computers around the world. Then the bot-herder can launch a simultaneous attack using all infected computers at the same time. That is what happened in Estonia last year when the whole country was disconnected from the internet for a couple of days. It only requires one single person.

"intentional interference with the signal of Radio B92 in Belgrade and all of Serbia." "B92 considers this an attack on the constitutionally guaranteed freedom of expression"


Well, B92, perhaps you should not censure me when I try to make a comment on here, because that too, interferes with my constitutional right to freedom of expression. Being silenced is never a good feeling!

Thanks
