Takes me back to IRC script-kiddie scene where [other people] would use tools like smurf and pepsi to knock eachother offline in hopes of taking over a channel.

Kinda funny how all that became, like, serious with actual businesses and dollars at stake.

Geopolitical and military action are at stake depending on which "channel" you're knocking people out of. Way more serious than businesses and dollars in some cases.
