The article of course does not detail on how swisscom 'disabled' the website, which seems to be hosted in Germany anyway.
*If* Swisscom has some way to be tricked into blocking websites by attacking random sites of theirs, then I am sure that soon Swisscom can better start leaving this whole Internet business. Also it can of course be called that they are applying censorship which is probably yet another lawsuit waiting to happen if they really do that (although IMHO in the case of xxx sites, meh, let people go somewhere else for their business).
The article states also that that sex site was not reachable 'for months'. Only conclusion I can make out of that one is that the attacking source has too much resources which generally is not the case, maybe an attack lasts a day which takes a site out, but for a month!?
Anybody got some insights, background and real details about all of this? Journalists are always so good in telling the wrong stuff.
