No matter how they spin it, it isn't legal. Likely he won't be touched in India 
but in the U.S. he and the industry paying him would be facing a judge.

The guy is a moron. Wanna be elitist.

He may get some business out of it, now that he has effectively put

The relevant Indian authorities have been notified - my guess is that he'll 
soon be receiving some interesting visitors.

He mentioned doing work (for hire) in AU and such. I think he may be in for a 
rude awakening since our past experience with the Australian authorities is 
they are more active chasing ddos/cyber-crimes than the U.S. Those guys pull 
out all the stops to prosecute. (Which I am happy to see)

Sadly, here in the U.S. you have little to no chance of getting assistance 
unless the client is a bank or very public company. In fact, that doesn't 
always work. (Even with direct FBI contacts in multiple field offices)

Kind of a shame..  We are likely already tracking his botnets so I almost 
welcome it as well. Out of curiosity, I did pull some stats over the last 60 
days and we have seen more attacks originating from the India area than we have 
seen in the past 12 months.

Maybe it's a coincidence. I would almost bet this guy has never carried out an 
attack in his life and simply trying to gain some publicity. *shrug*

There's no shortage of botted PCs and wide open dsl providers in India
- extremely high # of cbl listings for massmailer bots for example.

So could be any number of bots .. not like russian, brazilian etc
botmasters arent able to compromise PCs in India, or in Outer Mongolia
if they want to.
