> it's incredibly likely she legitimately thought Aaron WAS hacking and simply thought it was right to make an example of him. And you don't think that she will think that this is hacking if the site goes down from the load? Besides, making an example of people is having it out for them.

> And you don't think that she will think that this is hacking if the site goes down from the load? No, I don't. Someone stupid enough to continue this shitstorm would never make it that high up in office, especially when this is even less plausibly hacking than what Aaron did, even to someone without a great understanding (it's distributed, they warned people it would violate TOS, and the intent is clearly not to burden the site but to make a political statement that is explicitly designed NOT to burden the site). I could be wrong. But I really, really don't think so. > Besides, making an example of people is having it out for them. Well yea, she might have it out for 'hackers', but who doesn't? Anyway, it's a common practice to go after the 'big fish' to scare the smaller ones.
