" I wonder about running a DoS attack on universities with such agreements"
No. Just stop. You'd be messing up the lives of grad students and network admins by taking such actions. Get off your keister and out from script-kiddie land and do some direct action protests against the administration if you care so much. They're the one's making/enforcing policy.
- mindslight 11y agoI'd think the people who actually destroyed perfectly good systems would be the ones doing the interfering. If it wasn't clear (as you're calling me a "script-kiddie"), I'm talking about people physically going to these computers, viewing the voyeurs' precious trove, and then attesting "I read this on this machine" to the university administration. This sure seems like a direct action protest to me. As for [marching] protests - yeah I went to one of those once. It doesn't make much sense to merely volunteer to be kicking fodder for police horses. (edit: apparently people really don't understand that "denial of service" is a generically applicable term. sheesh)

I find it some what comical when people have a knee jerk reaction and advocate to others that the best™ way to protest is to do it in a way that that an institution/state is best prepared to deal with and puts the individual against forces that are completely asymmetrical in such domain…
