I'm worried about the article's comment: > And the unwitting users who are part of the botnet have their resources, such as their home broadband connection, used without their consent or knowledge. Perhaps I missed something, but doesn't this mean that a lot of homes and IoT devices that have been compromised will have increased CPU usage as a result of CF implementing the bad bot behaviour envisaged? In other words, the botnet owners won't care in the slightest about your response, but a lot of homes will suddenly get shoddy performance as their router grinds to a halt. (Yes, of course it'd be best if every home and every IoT device were secure... but that's unrealistically optimistic) |
