Re: 'bot net', really?

Is this the first you have heard of bot nets?

They are widely known to exist and have been used to attack less well defended companies.

Lovettsville, VA		 Yes, I know what bot nets are. I'm not a clueless newbie.

My skepticism is directed at Akamai. Has there been any third-party confirmation that the outage was actually caused by a bot net rather than their own incompetence?
