Flow visualization of a botnet malicious attack. Using rented botnets, you can launch hundreds of thousands — even millions — of infobombs at a target, all while maintaining total deniability. Once the net is ready, once single "go" is sufficient to blow up an istantaneous attack from millions of machines.
