Ive seen a few loot pi+¦ata shipmails and some juicy pods lately that have resulted in some rather nice local rage and evemail threats. I wouldn't put it past some of these rather immature individuals to try to make the whole universe pay for their AFK use of the autopilot.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |

CCP were wearing skirts that were too short?
Money at its root is a form of rationing.
When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is.

People are simply abusing the latest round of attack vectors and many targets are being hit.
Keeps me busy and it's enjoyable reading what you think.

Being in the IT industry since ... well .. a real freaking long time (think punch cards), I've been asked this about viruses (Virii ?) malware and DDoS attacks where its clear that there was no attempt to get sensitive data time and time again. Usually after I've sterilized a machine or system.
I've come to the conclusion its for the same reason people "tag" or graffiti train cars or other highly visible (non turf related) items. Its to get attention. To possibly get noticed in the news.
Think about it .. you take down MSN's site .. and your work is in the news. You take down CCPs servers or other large internet entities web site .. and you're in the news somewhere.
The people that do this thrive on the tears of their victims ... wait .. where have I heard that before ... hmmmm |

my kneejerk reaction to this was "there is always a reason", but after a few seconds I remembered that sometimes, when the decision isn't really important and I can't be bothered to make an effort I will flip a coin to decide. So, no, there doesn't need to be a reason. |

Someone was really pissed about the recent tweak to the Caracal.
... actually, while I think that it's incredibly easy to overanalyze the goals and priorities of script kiddies and their ilk, if I had to point to a motive I'd just note that CCP has been doing a great job of going after RMT sellers for quite a while now, and they're probably lashing out.

I'm not suggesting all of these attacks are by the same people, but there's certainly a lot of copycats. This probably has nothing to do with eve itself and more to do with hitting a popular online game.
So lets say you're a cybercriminal. You tell CCP to pay up X bucks or you keep DDOS-ing. "Look at how well we did with game Y"
It works cos alot blaim CCP. Bad for reputation.
I can deal with EVE crap. But RL guys like that I wanna punch in the face. No tears. Just a fist.

It seems highly likely it is becasue of CCP using Twitch.
There have been ongoing DDOS attacks on various games associated with Twitch for 6 months or more:

People totally do ddos for no reason, yeah.
And just because you can't keep up with current events, they did it to Blizzard, too, as well as quite a few other companies(EBay too, I think). It's coming out of India, is the running thought.
So "they" are just hitting as many targets as they can.

EVE players (the GD trolls no less) can't figure out why someone would DDoS? The irony...
After seeing what GSF did to that EVE-handicapped player with 44b Raven, I'd say some DDoS grief is the least of what we deserve.  |

Because taking someone's stuff in a videogame is totally an excuse for committing numerous real life crimes? 
And, once again, it's not just EVE, they're ddosing everything in sight.

I meant the EVE population on the whole. We have a reputation for being a pretty nasty bunch of folks. Karma, y'know?

No, I don't know.
No action taken in a videogame is an adequate excuse. I don't care how many precious little angels were trolled, scammed, or "griefed", there is no excuse.
And, once again, your argument isn't relevant, since this isn't targeted specifically at CCP.

99.9% of the time these things are usually due to something the company did to **** someone off. Take the 2011 hacking of SOE, PSN, & Sony by Anon just because of the arrest of a guys who hacked a ps3 game. So generally this is something CCP if you go with the status quo CCP brought it upon themselves. |

In all seriousness though, I'm not sure that all the issues are 100% caused by DDOS attacks. My issues and the issues of a lot of other people started Friday after downtime. There was a mini patch that Friday. I don't know about anyone else but my issues got substantially better after yesterdays Mini patch.
I'm still having issues, they just aren't as severe as they were Friday-Sunday where the game was unplayable at best.
Once they get the servers secure, I would seriously look at the Friday patch deployment. It may fix a lot of issues.
My issues started around a mini-patch around February 23rd. My issue with CCP is there has been a lot of poor craftsmanship on their part lately. I pay a subscription to play the game and not to fix their screw-ups. A company that has been developing the same game for over a decade should know how to properly patch the game without a lot issues. |

Sure is :D
One example, this guy got 30 months:

It does depend on the jurisdiction and some countries are slower to implement changes than others:
UK ... Police and Justice Act 2006
US ... Computer Fraud and Abuse Act
Australia ... Criminal Code Act 1995 Part 10.7 Computer Offences
