<<OT.OT. I can't help but wonder if these kind of things are only practice runs for something bigger like >>

OT, I don?t agree that the assaults on Yahoo, Ebay,are off topic at all. These are instances cyber terrorism, and only slightly a lesser terrorism than when the bad guys of the middle east or the IRA have planted bombs. No one was killed or maimed, but money was lost and interstate commerce was adversely effected.

Just as when China holds the economy of the world hostage or those who have manipulated the price of gold lower, people have been hurt financially. It is a form of monetary terrorism and has an adverse effect and must be decried.
