Really? Your position is that there are attacks but all these attacks
are somehow being kept secret?  People talked about ping floods, syn
floods, and an uncountable slew of other attacks. Incredible. 

If these attacks were indeed happening, someone, somewhere would be
talking about specific attacks.

But you don't have any factual counter-evidence to offer to refute the
alleged factual errors.  Incredible.

about t-shirts.
