What're folk's thoughts on that?
I'm not sure I'd liken shutting C&C infrastructure down to
"arresting the informants". I think that's quite a bad analogy,
actually, as informants are [often] third parties while C&C
infrastructure is used to convey actual execution instructions
- which are very often much more than DoS, as John pointed
out.
