Analysis of the Witty Worm
DavidMoore writes "The Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis (CAIDA) and the University of California, San Diego Computer Science Department have an
analysis of the recent Witty worm. Among other things, Witty was started in an organized manner with an order of magnitude more ground-zero hosts than any previous Internet worm."
And BASH thanks you for it! Keeping FP power away from those dirty gay homosexual negros is the first step to curing them of their nergocity and their homosexuality. You're doing the work of Jesus, my son! Glory!

This is the best named worm i've ever seen. When I first read headlines about it they said things like "witty worm attacks firewall." It took me a while to realize that was the name of the worm and not a judgement by the reporter (no I didn't read the articles)

analysis of the witty worm has revealed that it is wittier than most posts on slashdot
intellectual property law is philosophically incoherent. it is your moral duty to ignore it or sabotage it
My god he's right! This is the start of the Al Qaeda internet terrorism initiative that non-ratings-concerned-non-sensationalist Fox News and MSNBC warned us about! Emmanual Goldstine is their leader and he will be issuing a communique to the Ministry of Truth shortly. Everyone should PANIC!
Immediately put on your gas-masks and have your anthrax treatments ready! But, do not disconnect your machine from the network. Continue buying and supporting the economy. If you don't, THE TERRORISTS WIN.
I'd be making snide remarks to the owner of the machine i was deliciously invading, such as "nice windows".
There's a bug, in the worm, ... in the bottom of the sea....

You guys go ahead. I'll catch up with you as soon as my 'emerge -u kde' finishes.
What I'm listening to now on Pandora...
In other news, the Action League department of the Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis (AL CAIDA) today announced new threats of technological terrorist attacks. Among other things, they threatened to use illegally acquired funds to purchase the Microsoft Windows source code, insert viruses directly into the operating system, and release them to the unsuspecting world. The most frightening of their threats was to implement a technology called Windows Scripting Host, which would execute malicious code upon reception in an email inbox. Such a technology would allow viruses to spread faster than with earlier diskette-based methods.
Oh, wait... That's already been done for them. Back to the black hat drawing board with these computer crime organizations.
