    Actually, does anyone else thing it ironic that one of the effects of th e Irish SOPA law being signed is that we can't quote articles from newspapers and journals, and yet there is an entire article quoted in the openign psot about SOPA?

    It was done before the law was signed, so maybe it's omitted?

    It's the government's overseas development program.

    I guess people in other countries (China or ebaumsworld) don't see this as much of a development.

    That;s what I thought, but the first line of the quoted articcle specifically says, "has been signed into law".

    Why is it acceptable to call sherlock all the names under the sun, yet not other public figures?

    I think Marty Morrissey is a scoundrel.

    Better?

    comreg.ie and www.gov.ie still seem to be up - looks like they are limiting their plans to the minister but getbroadband.ie is a wierd one alright

    Probably only because it was so easy to do, it's a terrible site with out of date info, prob never updated and run by amateurs

    Good Job Keith.

    Link to anons online version of LOIC, it's technically illegal for you to click on it as it starts firing requests right off the bat, not censorship at all on boards part just bloody good sense.

    Good Job Keith.

    Server Overload or DDoS

    it was some form of automated html or java script sending big numbers of mini requests to what looked like seansherlock.ie - ive print screened it but i got off it as fast i could as soon as i figured out what it was

    My network activity was showing massive amounts of small packets sent while i was on it for the 10 seconds in which it took me to realise what it was

    i cant prove where the packets were heading though due to the limitations of my network monitor

    The person posted should have labelled the link at the very least....not a good place to post links like that though. It could land boards and the people who clicked on it not knowing what it was in trouble

    If Anonymous are spamming his email accounts they are idiots; I was getting some useful replies from Sherlock. That is going to shut down any positive communication and have only the idiots posting abuse being able to get through.

    Ye could have stated what it was - personally i prefer clarity if at all possible especially after seeing what it does (automatically starts firing packets of data as well) - this my opinion anyways on that :)

    Just to say it's not being labelled anywhere it's being put, seems to be tactical.
