I'm "Really Pissed Off" Method

There are a multitude of acts of net.terrorism that one can engage in. Unfortunately, many of these are not only illegal, but may also end up aggravating a number of people other than the intended. While I often fantasize about carrying out a number of these acts, I do not advocate actually doing it. If you want to learn more about some of these things, you can probably find information on alt.hackers or in some of the hacker journals floating around the net.

Some things that angry people have been known to do include:

Calling the 1-800 numbers included in the spam mail many times as this is billed to the company.
Sending their 1-800 fax's many requests
Requesting information from their mail response servers from the forged address of some other spam mailers auto-mail response server
Denial of service attacks i.e. the "SYN" attack allows a user with a 28.8 modem to easily shut down service of multiple T1 web sites simultaneously. This is documented in PHRACK and a number of CERT advisories (i.e. CERT(sm) Advisory CA-96.21 ).
