They're like bloody six-year-olds, pushing the boundaries, seeing how far we'll let them go before we stop them. And so now they play the "wazzinme" game. And if they simply... never admit to it? If the courts obey their Emperor and reject all appeals and requests? If no one ever claims responsibility? They're thumbing their nose at the free peoples of the world and whining, "And just what are you going to do about it, eh?" "Good corporate citizens" cannot be trusted. Rackspace can kindly go to hell. Spammers have for some time been operating viral, self-propagating, self-changing content delivery systems - and the US gummint hasn't been willing nor able to to a damned thing to stop them. Granted, this is a bit more complex than "BUY V14GRA NOW!!!111!!!1!" emails - but the proof of concept's already been built. Now we just need to scale it. And if it's limited to "volunteer" nodes, there's nothing illegal about it - not that that ever stops the Gummint.... The FBI wants to play infowar? Fine. These are people who are seriously conisdering Billy Gates' whispering in their ears that Windows is the best choice for a secure Gummint system. The network IS the computer, biznatch...
