Two wrong don’t make a right.

  True, but not relevant.
  • croes 7mo ago
    Relevant because Cloudflare manipulated the DNS using a false reasoning
    • cuu508 7mo ago
      1.1.1.2 blocks malware, and archive.today performs DDOS. Where's the false reasoning?
      • croes 7mo ago
        It‘s not a C&C/Botnet
        • cuu508 7mo ago
          It is C&C -- it instructs their site visitors to DOS a specific site.
          • croes 7mo ago
            A C&C controls a botnet, where is the botnet?
            • cuu508 7mo ago
              The browsers of their site visitors.
              • croes 7mo ago
                If you need to be on the site it’s not a botnet and there is no C&C server coordinating the attack. It‘s just the JS on the site that makes the attack.

                  Does this mean that the Great Cannon of China is not a botnet because it stops working when you close your browser?
                  • croes 7mo ago
                    Does the Great Cannon of China coordinate the attacks? Does archive.today? Hijacking a software like the browser is something completely different to a simple JS on a website.

                        How does archive.today coordinate the attack?
                        • fastball 7mo ago
                          By telling visitor browsers to DoS the site.
          • zahlman 7mo ago
            By this logic, all malicious JavaScript (obvious example is cryptominers I guess, assuming no JS sandbox escape) is C&C, yeah? As it "instructs site visitors" to do something harmful locally?
