Nothing happened (Score 1)

All of this wailing and gnashing of teeth is totally misplaced. Really, nothing happened. No one lost any money. The lost page views for one hour were more than made up for by new visits following all the publicity. Yahoo, e*trade and the rest would have had to pay $millions for this sort of publicity (well at least $100,000s). Share prices went up. The atacks will serve as a wake up call to administrators and service providers to increase security, and the internet will be enhanced. The only danger is thet the government uses this as an excuse to increase control over the internet. An by talking here as if this is a big problem, you are helping the government do just that. If the *insiders* agree that somthing is seriously wrong, they will say, that proves there really is a problem. Lets legislate.
