1st) these kiddies, launching DOS attackt against IRC-Servers are not crackers most of them are only script- or bot- warriors, they to dumb to reveal the real use of the net, communication, not warfare.
2nd) some of them don't know, that these activitys are counted as Attacks, only 'play with the new toys'
3rd) there are three different outcomes of this event: a) the attackers don't use the IRC-network, and are dumb enough to don't fear the rage of the users, then it is futile to shut down. b) the attackers hit the target and will buzz off. c) the attackers have an 'light' moment and give up these attacks.

If we create an AI, will we call it a 'lifeform' ?
If it is a 'Lifeform' witch rights have the creator relating to his 'creation' ?
This are grey zones in our law, and must be regulated before someone creates an true AI (if it will ever possib.).
-------------------------
You attempt to create an AI, but to understand the meaning of AI you must know, what is I.
So, how define You I ?
And, have mankind already reached I ?
