DDoSes are done by a bajillion zombie computers, infected with malware. There's no way to tell who's controlling them. You can even rent a DDoS for fairly cheap.
So you can cut it out with the federal prosecution crap, 'cause the feds don't tackle impossible cases unless a white woman got raped or something.
What we need, at least for a couple months, is a hosting provider with some kind of ddos protection, proxy-based would be ideal. The standalone packages for proxy-ddos run around $399/mo so that's not really viable, we'd need to find a hosting provider that includes it in their plan.
Or we can just find another host and roll the dice that whoever did it is now bored. But safe to assume it's gonna keep happening until we make ourselves immune to it...I wouldn't put much faith in the goodwill of lamers.
