They did this last month. I somewhat watched them do it, too. They said they were gonna take it down, I checked the website, it was up. They said they took it down, it was down. I don't see any reason to not believe them.

EDIT: The articles are dated today. Talk about slow.

So, what was actually on this website?
If it's just general info on the CIA, is it even important at all if you take it down?
What sort of threat does it show if you're crashing safe sites?

It's easy to take a site down. Hacking it is a whole different thing.

True true

The main tool they use for DDOSing is on a mainstream open-source software portal (used by universities, students, gamers...)

I found that out by accident by typing something in Google.

The governments probably already have the sourcecode for the tool they use lol.
