Fluffy Bunny No Longer
Found and interesting article about a hacking group called fluffy bunny that were planning to take down the Internet's 13 domain-name root servers in a massive DDos attack using 12,000 high-bandwidth systems operated by Akamai.

Good read. I thought you were posting it sayng that they'd struck again because, not only was AntiOnline down, but a lot of other security and technology news-related sites have been down yesterday and today. I rememeber hearing about them a lot last year... I'd actually completely forgotten about them until now.

That was interesting. I never heard of Fluffy Bunny before, but kept up with other defacers at Alldas and Attrition to see what trends they make, what OS's they focus on, etc. It's kind of fun really. It's not too often you hear of defacers getting arrested, but it seems to be more of the case nowadays which is a good thing

I, despte being rather loosely knit into the community, have heard an awful lot about Fluffy Bunny (or, you're right, Fluffi Bunny).. they were notoroious (the term used as nicely as possible) defacers, and could be seen all over the internet for about 5 years (that number might be a bit askew, things online have the habit of getting twisted about).. but they always left the same calling card, a large JPG or GIF or other image of a pink rabbit (picture the energizer bunny with a drinking habit) on the front of the site they hit, and they usually left a political message along with the image, or included in the image... Check out some mirrors for more accurate descriptions of what they did, and study up because they were... well, good.

sounds to me like their challanging fluffy bunny.
why would anyone want to hack Akamai. simple buisness folk who do nothing by suck up bandwidth with streaming media ads. hacking them just wouldn't be right, tactical nukes would be so much more effective
You gotta love the way wired discribes Akamai's job discription, i need them to write my resume.
"These systems are designed to speed up Web surfers' access to content "
instead of saying
these systems are designed to cram advertising down you throat
Heres a couple of 'bookmarks for them:
127.0.0.1 a4.g.akamai.net
127.0.0.1 a388.g.akamai.net

I've heard of them for a LONG while. They defaced that one guy's site who got in trouble for stealing money or some junk... what was his name? I made a post about it a while back. Oh well.
