Though offtopic, I think it worth noting that it's entirely
ethical for people to perform actions unethical under other circumstances
in self-defense. Normally, I can't shoot you, but if you are trying to
shoot me, I can. Normally, I can't use a DoS attack against your
computer, but if you are using one against mine, I think I can.
