There are a lot of people in this thread who have very valid complaints about the web, but don't make any sense at all in context. This one is a great example. Sure DDoS sucks but what at all does that have to do with the difference between today's web and the web of the 2000s? Today's web offers DDoS protection (optionally) and the web of the 2000s did not.

The first DDoS happened in 1996. Absolutely nothing to do with the current topic at hand, completely off topic.

It is way easier to ddos a website today than back in the 2000s. Back in 2000, you could block almost every ddos simply by having gigabit. Now there are millions of more exploitable devices.

Do a search, https://www.google.com/search?q=stresser

An attack that can cripple all but the largest networks can be had for $5-10.

I always take those speeds with a grain of salt as it is likely that they dont actually provide those speeds. What is someone gonna do if the speeds are wrong? Sue them in court for not commited the crime they are paying to commit enough?
