It also seems like they won't get in with good passwords, so it isn't actually accomplishing something to worry about the script kiddies if you have good passwords. And this blocking won't actually stop someone with a zero day attack or who is sophisticated and can attack from many IP addresses - these are the real threats for people with good passwords. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Its going on and on and on. Nothing like this has happened before. I have
several hundreds by now. Make me wish Internet was a more regulated place.
Its a place where bad people have the upper hand and good people cannot do
anything about it. I know incidences where spammers and attackers were tried
to be punished by genuine companies by doing DoS attacks on their zombie
machines and as a result these companies got so much DoS that they were left
with no choice other than to close their genuine and legal businesses.
And when even reputable companies like Amazon become part of this criminal
activity, and refuse to do anything against it, what can rest of us do?
Nothing, but suffer.
Unless main Internet routers will identify these attackers and block their
IPs, there is no real way to control this criminal activity.

their sick strategies accordingly.
