What Happened to Blue Security
shadowknot writes "Blue Security has published a detailed account of the attack on their servers perpetrated by spammer "PharmaMaster". The attack included a DDoS attack on the Blue Security operational system and a Black Hole filtering attack on the Blue Security website. From the article: "The first attack was to block worldwide access to Blue Security's corporate website (www.bluesecurity.com) by tampering with the Internet backbone using a technique called "Blackhole Filtering". The Second attack was a DDoS attack on Blue Security's operational system."
What is the name and location of PharmaMaster? I'd like to see him DDOS his way out of a crowd of angry villagers carrying torches and pitchforks.
...they must be doing something right! I'm signing up.
Thanks PharmaMaster for referring me!

Man, what are you, 13 years old? Mossad does not go after spammers. Believe it or not, the Israeli state has worse enemies.
Done with slashdot, done with nerds, getting a life.

And we'll fight them at the Gmail's spam filter. ;) You forgot this one!
Yep, we should take action. Somebody has to. As people who profit from spam don't want to take effective action against them, we're in our right of defending ourselves. Maybe the guilt is not only theirs, but those 0.005% people who buy penis enlagement pills, viagra, cialis and such.
The amount of short-dicked, impotent men waiting for a nigerian fortune is simply unbelievable.
I'd probably do that too if I were an astro-truffer for a sleazey spammer, instead I'm going to down-load the linux version of the bluefrog client and connect it to my spam account and let it run. In fact I'm probably going to engage in activities designed to get those accounts on as many spam lists as is humanly possible. I've got accounts at yahoo and gmail that get about 10 spams for every legit email, maybe I can get the clutter down to the point where they'll actually be usable again.

Isn't the DDoS tag a little bit redundant for a submission which appears in Slashdot?
