Kremlin-Backed Nashi Admits Cyberattacking Estonia

Posted by timothy on from the please-send-me-some-polonium-antidote dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Russia's Kremlin-based youth movement Nashi admits being responsible for 2007 cyberattacks against Estonia. An interesting point is that when you DDoS the systems, it's not the fault of some people who want to crash it but instead the systems' for blocking their users due to technical limitations. So if I shot someone to death it's not my fault for shooting them, but theirs instead because of technical limitations of their body."

    Any decent man pinged those Estonian Nazi bastards who made that show with the monument and bodies of the fallen soldiers.

    On a general basis, the only people who are ever extradited from Russia are hot blondes who like to use their physical appearance to get the fuck out of Russia and get a passport in a civilised country.
