You spend an awful lot of time defending actual nazis. Perhaps you should ask yourself why you feel the need to do that?

Having principles can be prickly

Perhaps you should ask yourself why you think the ends justify the means. After all, you can only despise Nazis due to some underlying principles, and yet you seem to have trouble understanding that other principles may also matter.
The intent of the DDoS in question is very clearly a form of intimidation. DDoS in general does cause real economic harm and not merely inconvenience.

That's irrelevant. Murdering Nazis is still wrong and illegal.

If it were they would have been charged. You're imputing intent and actions without sufficient evidence, because if that evidence existed we wouldn't even be having this conversation. Extra-judicial actions of this sort, no matter how plausibly justified, are not how society works. We have laws and a justice system because mob "justice" is wrong.
