How to Own the Internet In Your Spare Time

xenofile writes "A chilling paper has recently been posted analyzing the various threats worms pose to the Internet, and the relative ease of exploiting say the 30,000,000 Kazaa hosts to completely cripple large portions of the net." Lots of good stuff in this paper. It sorta combines many things you've probably read, and demonstrates how the net could be seriously taken by someone who wants it.

    On vacation once. All it did was complain the whole time. "Are we there yet?" "When are we going to eat?" "I'm tired, I wanna go back to the hotel" "My connections are all a mess" yadda yadda! It just went on and on. Eventually, I brought the net back home. Now the rest of you can deal with it.
