Right wing cyber attacks on Healthcare.gov website confirmed

That's a good point...

I see a surprisingly handsome and focused middle-aged man. Sweet nectar, this will be a good day.

 

how does the purported hacking affect those parts of the exchange that aren't built yet?

AFAF,TIA.

 

also, can it really be called "hacking" if the site uses no security protocols?

 

Absolutely right on this one, fakerman. - liberals own the idea of affordable health care. Republicans own the idea of opposing it.

 

I'm not sure I see the big deal. It titles itself a Resource Guide. It's propaganda, but it doesn't look like CoveredCA.com. People will realize in a few minutes that they aren't in the right place. They're educating the public in the law in the way they allegedly see it. That's politics and free speech. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that DailyKos and crooksandliars would be upset about it.

Here's the mailer: http://crooksandliars.com/files/attachments/13/12/Wilk1.pdf. It bills the website as an information resource.

I don't even know what you're driving at here.

 

typical left wing strategy here...attack the website blame it on the right...They plant people in Tea Party rallies all the time saying outrages stuff...OP you don't full me...and the Examiner???????????????????????? LOL!!!!!

 

they call it hacking.. I call it ****ty code.

 

DDoS isn't hacking anyway, unless you're actually the one digging into machines you don't own and turning them into drones; if you're just making yourself a drone for someone else to use (see: Low Orbit Ion Cannon), that's far from "hacking." People over-use the term "hack." DDoS basically just fills a pipe until it can't serve anyone. Better traffic filtering or a bigger pipe/server is really one of the only ways to handle it that I know of. Clearly, healthcare.gov didn't have enough servers to handle even regular traffic, much less than compounded with a (probably) weak DDoS.

 

Everything is about personal responsibility except insurance
