ignorant

Teragon are you ignorant or stupid?
DENIAL OF SERVIC = DOS
The dns vulnerability was about cache poisoning.
It could have been an old fashion ddos

For me the inq is fast enough if it's working, but rather often it goes dead a while, unrelated to DNS attacks incidentally.
As for wikipedia, wikipedia has many mirrors all over the world, it's bound to be more stable than sites relying on one or two servers.

And about for the 'release' of the DNS vulnerability details, since there were already tests sites for the DNS weakness I'd say the nasty people could have already figured out the trick long before this release of details

Yeah, right...

But that doesn't explain why TheINQ is ALWAYS SLOW... can this thing load faster? (Fudzilla is faster, and Wikipedia is the fastest of all web pages)

Proves that people will not listen to warnings untill someone gets hurt,

That DNS vulnerability was known about weeks ago, there was more than enough time to patch it considdering the patch was such a rapid and short deployment. 
Shame on those providers who didnt heed the warning

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
