Hola all,
Thanks for notification.
But, I do want to inform you that ProHosting Security Department description
of e-action is incorrect - this was not DDOS. This was an intentional Electronic Civil Disobedience (ECD) gesture (is based on research b.a.n.g lab to develop mass non-violent direct action on-line). This research is supported
by CAL IT2.
Just for clarification: DDOS is a technical condition based on anonymous technically efficient code that works and represents the work
of one or two individuals. ECD is symbolic mass-simulation.
The reason for the e-action was to protest the killings and repression of
teachers in Oaxaca - as well as the killing of an independent U.S. reporter.
If you wish to see a live version of the e-action that was hosted by our
research team at CAL IT2 please click here:

Best,
Ricardo Dominguez
P.S. I will be hosting a gathering on E-activism and its many trajectories
in the Fall of 2007. I hope you can all come and participate.
