Here come the copyright vigilantes
Looks really like a lot of fun to me.
If they bring one of my servers down, I will persuit them according the laws in my country, where the attacked server is located.
If I prove loss of data, the lawyers of my country will decide they have to pay me back. If not, goods of the company in question, who are in my country, will be confiscated.
Another assumption: 10 servers brought down by an attack could mean 10 counterattacks. Balance: 1 against 10.
Who said real life is better then a computer game?
This really looks like fun to me.
Serious now, this is one of the most silly laws I ever heard.
Ever heard of the bommerang effect? They will find out.
The impact would be global and not restricted to one country with silly lawyers. It should be a start of a gobal internet war.
