Does someone know the name of the following attack: You could simply send a bunch of packages to a router/Wifi-point and it would get overflown and thus taken offline.
It were packages of a specific protocol but I forgot which protocol and what the name of the attack was.
@nobody Sometimes manpower is not the issue, time is not the issue, and some people have all day long. If only we had logs for voyeur law enforcement. Call E_BORED_INFORMANT / E_BORED_NEIGHBORHOOD_WATCH` a determined attacker too?
@prosody-GabeVereableContext You're right about that, except it is a rare combination for someone to have all day long and access to exploits that can hack everything. There definitely are not enough of those people out there for us to get roughly a question a month about them.
@nobody "Rare"? Law is too quiet about Official Hacking Weapons. If society asks for better surveillance, when will law enforcement standardize/open that job? Before we know it, now we have superempowered officers, hacking with tools that they're barely aware of their actual function, now able to slow your internet connection with an easy button, like a gun trigger, but not showing blood spatter or fingerprints for tracing. What do we do when the tools come before the laws to enforce them?
