i really hope they sue microsoft hard, so they will think twice before doing sutch an action again.

took my minecraft, unreal, halflive and battlefieldserver offline, aswell as the according sites and some more.

allthough i do this for free, to have some fun with my frieds, its still not ok.

if m$ would put the same effort in hardening ALL of their products, this issue never ever would have been an issue at all.

its allways easier to point on others.

18,000 : 4,000,000 = a false positive rate of 99.552%

I have no interest in Microsoft “protecting” me from two pieces of botnet malware that can’t infect my Mac/Linux setup by causing widespread, international damage to the very systems that underpin many of the services I use.

By closing down the DDNS server my Minecraft server without recognised legal power to do so here in the UK, they effectively DoS’d me – that’s a violation of the 2006 Police and Justice Act provisions making such actions illegal and punishable by 10 years in prison. It’s a shame that their US-obtained warrant affects me, but my UK-mandated legal protections can’t punish them for it.

Great piece of hacktivism, love it!
