What's the point of DDosing? - gotham18 - 08-28-2012
Alot of people were asking me what's the point of ddosing / booting people's ip.
Well, there's various reasons.
1) You own an online business and want to kick the other website offline to get customers to come to your site instead.
2) You do it for currency, e.g duel staking in Runescape and boot them off making you win.
3) You do it to your rivals, just because you hate them :wink:
4) Lets say you find the IP of a large buisness.
You SE a phone number to a specific desk.
You get the IP for that computer.
Boot the IP and then call the desk saying "IT department, are you experiencing any trouble blah blah blah" and then end up with vital information.
Hope you understand now why ddosing is popular and why people pay for it.
5) Make a ddos / booting service.
6) Ddos online penny-auction sites while your winning so no one else can bid on them = bank made.

Well one good use if you actually like SE'ing and hacking for profit.
Lets say you find the IP of a large buisness.
You SE a phone number to a specific desk.
You get the IP for that computer.
Boot the IP and then call the desk saying "IT department, are you experiencing any trouble blah blah blah" and then end up with vital information.
other than that, just fun or to get "revenge"
Ah nice one :p
Added it into the thread :p

I knew some people that once did it to a penny-auction site and made quite a bit of money.

Most people aren't that smart about it though. They do it out of pure anger, or boredom, which can really upset people. Only target people who deserve it, right?

Think of it this way, If a commercial popular site get a DDos attack, their server gets down, and the rivals get benefits. Many times the main cause of DDosing is this.
Big providers have good firewall to block them, the small companies have lesser protection, thats why they become target, But I still don't understand what benefits the hackers get from attacking a small business!

I know there's people on HF with super-strong booters so you can ask them to do it - most have a service.
