Well according to this nerd lucafer66, he's DDoSing everyone and demanding that they pay a certain amount of money per month to cease the attacks (in Jelly's case, he offered 10 a month then said 8 a month). He also said olaf wouldn't pay, and I presume that's why it's nowhere to be seen at the moment.

Oh, Renedrama

That alone is enough to let them arrest that guy if they submit a report to the police.
Atleast in the Netherlands Denial-of-Service attacks is most certainly ground for an arrest and at the very least a fine (up to about €16k) and maybe jail time (up to 1 year). And if this is true even blackmail, which will probably only increase the fine or jail time.

What are the IP addresses be used in the DDoS attacks? The provider should be able to filter them out, or have the carriers black hole them.

Quote:

'In the Netherlands, both in the police and outside, a great deal of attention is devoted to the low percentage of crimes that are solved. This percentage is approximately 10 %. In the surrounding countries, particularly in Germany, this percentage is significantly higher (40 - 50 %). According to a number of legal experts, this is because the detection of crime and the prosecution of suspects is not always obligatory in the Netherlands (Legality principle). On the grounds of general interest, (further) prosecution by the Public Prosecutor can be abandoned (Principle of Appropriateness). The question whether this scope also applies for detection is answered by jurisprudence in the 'Broodjeswinkel decision' of 31 January 1950. Detection is 'only' compulsory when it is part of the normal course of events and the normal conduct of the detective is in accordance with the task. This prevents the wastage of a low detection capacity.'

You are spreading FUD, Iran.

Also, Olaf isn't shutting XWIS down. AFAIK he rented a new server last night and I suppose he's setting it up soon. If this does not solve the issue, we're discussing new concepts that might help XWIS stay online during a DDOS.

ad hominem with no rebuttal so argument lost.

but here's the same article from the NRC:

http://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2012/12/01/strafrisico-gigantisch-gedaald-vrees-voor-st ijging-criminaliteit/

in b4 nrc = tabloid

both articles cite government sources so i guess you're a conspiracy theorist or revisionist in terms of crime stats

oh and the article you cited is 10 years old, during that time crimes that were actually being reported dropped substantially.

http://www.nrc.nl/rechtenbestuur/2012/11/17/criminaliteit-is-zichtbaar-puntje-va n-ijsberg/

Quote:

Wat doet de politie met die 1,2 miljoen waarvan ze dan wel op de hoogte raakt? Dat is trouwens 11 procent minder dan wat de samenleving in 2004 nog kwam melden. Daalt dan de criminaliteit of daalt juist het vertrouwen in de politie? Mij lijkt het een open vraag.


Quote:

De politie wordt wel steeds slechter in het oplossen van de misdrijven. Van die 1,2 miljoen werden er in 2011 maar 289.000 opgelost. Dat is 15 procent minder dan in 2005.


Quote:

Terzijde: op een congres van criminologen aan de VU hoorde ik de korpschef Haaglanden, Henk van Essen, vertellen dat 80 procent van de opgehelderde misdrijven het gevolg is van betrappen op heterdaad. En dat 80 procent van die 'heterdaadjes' wordt gerapporteerd door burgers.


Quote:

n. Dat zie je ook aan het aantal aangehouden verdachten. Dat waren er vorig jaar 202.000, een afname met 15 procent ten opzichte van 2005. De capaciteit om boeven te vangen gaat dus ook achteruit. Ik kan het niet laten: aan het totale aanbod kan dat niet liggen.


Quote:

Het Openbaar Ministerie behandelde vorig jaar 226.000 zaken. Toch ook 15 procent minder dan in 2005. Daarvan werd een derde geseponeerd: weggegooid. Een kwart werd door het OM afgehandeld, met één of andere sanctie. Voor de strafrechter bleven er in 2011 op die manier 102.000 misdrijven over.


But don't worry that will chance once we'll get a PVV led coalition

The guy who joined our IRC appears to have been a troll whom we banned 4 years ago. Whether or not he is capable of actually attacking us remains to be seen.

Typically you would compare the types of packets being sent to the IP from what it normally gets....which should be easy since it's a xwis server. If the packets do not fit the criteria, you block them at the router level.

I'm not sure why it would take all year? Surely you haven't tried to block 100k ip's 1 by 1?

The problem is that a lot of these budget providers that xwis is using wont do this for them.

Seems like another random idiot. He has not been in a Rencorner server since September of last year. Seems he disappeared for a while and came back attacking xwis and Jelly. I have yet to see him attack us or come on our irc, but I believe he will eventually just give up like they normally do. I can also confirm Xwis is not going down for good.
