But by today's standards, Moonlight Maze would have been trivially small. I don't have any numbers for Titan Rain. Anyone know how it compared to the 4mpps of this attack?
Periodically, China, Japan and South Korea seem to have rotating grudge matches between their hacking groups. And in wars with bullets, there was Yugoslavia and Radio B92 all-media attacks; and pro-Chinese groups launched several attacks after the US bombed the Chincese embassy in Belgrade. There have been so many cyber-protests of many different US policies for many years even keeping a list would be a lot of work. And even some pro-US groups launching cyber-attacks to protest policies of other countries.
