I didn't say they were hacks,I said that it was down to hackers,they need to hack peoples pc's in order to send the info to clog up the networks,they use them as bots,I do wish you would read what I have posted correctly before commenting,I am more than well informed about this,so in essence it IS down to hackers,believe it or not you can get hackers to launch a prolonged cyber attack for as little as $150,in order to do it computers need to be hacked to send the info,please do your homework.
