if you draw the line between attacks of the past through this one you see that the scale of DDoS attacks continues to get worse. It's all well and good to say that the enablers of the past learn and improve their products. The problem is continually the enablers of the future.

It's been said before but I will repeat it here; manufacturers have no reason to expend any resources on security until they are held liable for the damage they facilitate. We must make selling insecure devices a liability just like selling unsafe devices is in meatspace.
