Maybe/. could start offering a prepackaged "Port 80 Flood Kit - Get the pride of being slashdotted without having to work for it." Say $1000 a pop. It's better than spending the money on advertising.

Haven't you seen Star Wars? All you have to do to get past that is either shoot the keypad with a lazer gun, or tear it off the wall and short out the wires in the back.
