DDoS Takes Down RLSLOG and Bitsnoop

Zeiko Anonymous continues to cause trouble for file-sharing sites.

Today BitTorrent index BitSnoop was attacked as well as the popular release blog RLSLOG.

Both sites are still offline at the time of writing due to DDoS attacks.

Zeiko started attacking private BitTorrent trackers with a SYN-flood last weekend and later moved over to larger public sites including The Pirate Bay and isoHunt.

  • Welp

    Skids never learn….

    • No

      not a skid…. He/they are something else.

      • the616kid

        Nope. If all you can do is DDoS, you’re nothing.

        • Sdfd

          his ddos hit hard though, and anon hit back harder
          hacking is just a side hobby for me, its easy to reconfig my MAC address now, and I run a vpn alongside my regular partitioned network adapters,
          anyways, after reading these comments including some from Afro Merrys (Nig Nogs)
          “Nope. If all you can do is DDoS, you’re nothing.” Are you kidding/? THis is probably coming from an underage b& who takes codeacademy too seroisu

      • Ben Nichols

        yeah not a skid, a total fucking douchebag

  • Anyone

    someone take away his daddy’s credit card so he can’t afford the botnet anymore

    • Zeiko was ITT

      Anti-pirate or Anti-Anonymous group == Daddy

       

      Zeiko is probably POSTING IN THIS THREAD

  • Monty

    Any of you hipsters know why Zeiko Anonymous is doing this??

    • Guest

      He’s a faggot that didn’t get accepted into a private torrent site.

      • CCIFan

        Surprised that nobody has doxed this Zeiko yet

      • Guest

        Correction*
        Didn’t get NON EXISTENT what.cd account back.. starts ddosing everywhere.

        *This was planned.
        Ask for the impossible, ddos in retaliation for not getting it.

      • bw2colour

        Not hard, took me less then a week to get a word out and I got a invite. He just needs to get off the internet…

      • Krist0895

        Shut the fuck up you discriminative piece of shit, the world should get rid of scumb like you.

    • Zenamez

      He had an account on a private torrent site. The account was shutdown for some reason and now he’s on a tantrum streak demanding that he get his account back and bonus accounts to hand out to friends or he’ll keep DDoSing torrent sites like the child that he is.

      • https://twitter.com/streaky81 Streaky

        Nope. He claimed he did, not the same thing. Suspicion is the guy is related to MPAA or similar clowns.

        • Dan

          yea MPAA etc would be my guess. every other time they have asked another country to ddos/break laws etc on there behalf they have been outed for it fairly quickly from what ive seen and its all been fairly bad PR for them. this time seems like they are trying to give a fairly unbelievable excuse (the guy never had an account but at the time could have easily have gotten one) to get the suspicion off themselves.

          i wonder if the proof of who is really behind it will end up getting leaked like a lot of other good info does?

        • https://twitter.com/streaky81 Streaky

          @Dan – Unlikely anybody is going to know who they are for it to leak out. Can’t see this guy being ‘doxed’. It might be one of the companies loosely related of the type that’s been ripped apart before, but if they’re not stupid enough to talk about it then nobody is going to know what target to hit in that case.

          Seems to me in the case of what.cd their systems in place stopped this guy getting into their network – if that was ever his intent.

          People get hitting by this stuff just need to pay for cloudflare business, it’s cheap enough :)

    Someone nuke this little twerp off the net perm.

    BS is back up RL still seems to be down.

    • etherkye

      Bullshit is back up but Real Life is still down?

      Well thats a bummer…

  • Anonymous

    Surprised someone hasn’t released his dox or something. But yeah, this is what happens when you give kids access to a botnet, or for shits and giggles a booter. Think they’re all hardasses.

  • Anonymous_mother_fucker

    QUALITY …..Hope he keeps the good work up , you cock suckers cry like bitches when someone takes away your toys for a day.

    • Derp

      Problem Officer?

      • IF

        or is that Zeiko.

        Zeiko confirmed as Anti-Anonymous.

    • Lolz

      You Mad Bro?

    • Guest

      There are still other torrent sites lol. Or tribler…

    • Small Cog

      Bad cop, no donut.

    • Germanmilente

      fuck you mother fucker

    • sugees69

      your an asshole of the worst kind, and I hope you get what you give in kind many times over. Let someone take away your toys and lets see how you like it. Jerk off.

  • RoestVrijStaal

    I’m surprised that the torrent sites didn’t use naming and shaming yet and publish a list of used ip-addresses for the DDoS-attacks.

  • John Space

    Can’t someone stop this guy?

    • Guest

      quick someone call joe biden! >,> J/K he would probably shake his hand. I think if he pisses off enough people Anonymous will take care of him. I’m sure there are enough hackers out there who are already on it. if he doesn’t decide to stop then I’m sure someone will eventually hijack his botnet, find out who he is and use it to spam his internet provider at his IP address until he is turned off for excessive bandwidth usage. he’ll either have to pay business premium rates for a dial up connection or get it in his mama’s name…

      just dreaming out loud, echoing most people’s sentiment of “what a douche”

      • Justice4all

        keep dreaming, loser lol

    • Pelham123

      Give him a job at the RIAA or MPAA. Then he’ll spend 40 hours a week wishing he had a time machine and he”ll be too busy to DDoS anybody.

  • Wallace

    I’ve never actually used BitSnoop … I’ll check it out tomorrow.

  • Chino

    I got my gun and I will fuck this shitty mother fucker nerd piece of shit!!!

    • http://profiles.google.com/zerianis10 Christopher Kidwell

      I don’t usually support any violence, but if you are sure that you have found this guy and confirmed it? Feel free to take the guy out in my opinion.

      DDoS = faggot/bastard in the real world.

  • blanko

    this dude need real wife i think..what a lame..

  • MAFIAA

    All going according to plan I see

    Hope this boy keeps the good work going

  • Dsds

    laaaaaame…

  • Naneieghamar

    Seriously, can’t these people protect themselves against a simple DDoS? It’s two thousand freaking twelve now. And TF keeps writing articles about this guy, giving him more and more publicity, exactly what he is after.

    • http://profiles.google.com/zerianis10 Christopher Kidwell

      DDoS attacks, with the way the internet is set up today, are extremely hard to protect yourself from.

      Even Cisco says that on a regular basis.

  • Darkknight145

    EZTV is also down

    • bw2colour

      Just checked, it’s not. Now the download speeds are getting shitty, but it’s still up…

  • 187torrent

  • Fu

  • Debar

  • WhatDoYOuThink

    What would be interesting is if the person responsible was to get caught would the US DoJ charge him/her and call fro the maximum penalty?

    • Bill Bradley

      Angry unstable individuals do angry unstable things. This kid likely will not get into any legal trouble if he is caught though, he will more likely be offered a job…

  • Zowiemoon

    This guy is a fuckin’ legend. Love the way he is taking out the freeloaders and pseudo ‘free’ spokespeople that are just greedmongers by any other name. The real MAFFIA are the internet mobsters and petty buck uploaders…get a life and pay your way by supporting the creators.

    • Fredrika

      > “..and pay your way by supporting the creators.”

      The best way to support the creators are through manufacturing copies yourself through filesharing, and buying other goods and services that are built up around the use of their creative works, as in products which adds an extra economical value to society and the consumers, unlike wasting one’s money on buying useless copies, which is a product that has no economical value.

    • Aojgjqnz

      He’s taken nothing, so you can relax.

      It’s business as usual everywhere.

      Good luck playing whack’a'mole and to think you’re actually winning LMAO

    • JustJenna

      LOL the creators get nothing from the sale of their music, unless they are indie. Concert tickets are their bread and butter and that is what I am willing to purchase.

    • Pelham123

      The Golden Rule: anybody who for any reason describes someone who does DDoS attacks as a “legend” and follows that with “get a life and ..”, do the exact opposite of what he recommends.

  • Montisaquadeis

    Possible to report those messages to twitter for their content? Considering what he is doing is against the law I would say let twitter help get this idiot out of the way.

  • XXX

    What a selfish, obnoxious, childish little cunt. Can’t someone take the fucker down? Surely other elements of Anonymous won’t like him using their name for this shit? Do something useful and attack a bank or an arms company, you stupid little shit.

    • Zowiemoon

      “Surely other elements of Anonymous won’t like him using their name for this shit?”

      Yeah surely a copyright/trademark infringement, afff afff afff….

  • jose

    fuck you Mother fuckers.

  • DeadWood

    bout time someone took down that virus ridden cesspool of scam links

  • OMgz

    Surely if he/she was, Wouldn’t they be concentrating on OpIsrael at the moment… botnet kiddy who’s thrown his toys out of his pram.

  • XXX

    I’ve been using rlslog for years, i’ve never had a virus.

    • Guest321

      Anyone who supports a greedy money hungry site like RLSLOG whose editors couldn’t care less about us is NOT a real file sharer. Don’t you ever wonder why they only use filehosts that pay them money? Even most of the links in the comments section are scam. The site is really a cesspool and a refuge for those who simply don’t know any other place to get their stuff from which isn’t too hard.

  • Herschel Walker

    …And he’s DDOSing the Pirate Bay again.

  • Laapsaap

    The real story behind Zeiko Anonymous.

    Its two main characters surrounded by a group of people, both of them are software developers that lost everything in the bad economy and blame it on piracy because we uploaded their shitty program and ebooks on piratebay. Their wife took the kids and left them because they don’t have enough money to compensate their ugly fat ass.

    So now they are out on revenge.

    We can do the same, everytime when someone criticize illegal downloads we should punch them in the face as an act of protest against Zeiko. I just did..

  • Nielzo666

    i like free downloads ,does that make my a parasite on society ?
    For all i know society never helped me anyways ,why don’t they go kill themselves ,i think this little bugger should be helped to do so .
    As lots of elements should do exactly the same ,it would make the world a better place : less profit and more ideology !

  • wtf

    what an ahole!! they came back up for a bit.. down again now tho :(

  • Fr

    lol u cant stop piracy u idiot

  • lmaoz

    Thanks to Zeiko i found some great new links for downloading :)

    And now ALL sitesthis noob advertised work 100%

    Thanks zeiko for promoting free download sites

  • zzzz

    Zeiko Anonymous is nothing more than a script kiddie.

    Move along.

  • HAHA

    some one took his twitter feed! thank you!

  • Kaboom

    Awwww… soooo sad! (pure irony) LOL

    Zeiko Anonymous @ZeikoAnonymous
    ACCOUNT HAS BEEN HACKED BY (@AnonymousIRC). Never pretend to be who you are not. We never forgive, We never forget, Expect us.

    • zzzz

      Like I said previously, Zeiko is nothing more than a script kiddie that can’t even protect his own accounts.

      Probably a 10 year old script kiddie with a password like iam1337godzeiko

  • Sabfrompc

    This is pretty sweet. Now he is trying to ddos anonops.

  • http://twitter.com/Picollo30 Paulo Monteiro

    fuck yeah, son of a bitch was asking for it. anonymous ftw

  • Admin

    zeiko is RIAA/MPAA/IFPI paid person or persons to attack P2P. It is so cleat that MAFIAA is behind those attacks.

  • Pmoz

    Excuse me, I’m not much of a techie, but the most obvious source of this ddos is the ‘copyright’ holders. King Cnut knew he couldn’t stop the tide no matter how many sand castles he built.

  • Trollgasm

    somebody please take his anal virginity away. i wouldn’t want this zeiko bitch to suck my dick cuz this ferocious motherfucker might bite my dick off and rip my balls.

    so Yea… but you know, its time, dear conscientious minds, to strap ourselves with weapons like a terrorist and RAID THIS MOTHERFUCKER, BURN HIS FUCKING HOUSE just like how FEDS KILLED MEGAUPLOAD. WE NEED OUR OWN EXAMPLE OF DISCIPLINE TO THESE YOUNG MOTHERFUCKERS GOIN CRAZY WITH SOME DANGEROUS SHIT.

    anyways, on a side note……….
    why is the world so fucking noisy these days.. ;/ somebody please stick a dick in obama’s mouth or romney’s mouth while they talk… its so wrong to talk shit from your mouth and eat from your ass… anyways these so called “presidents” better get their acts straight and FIX THESE Policies, and oh of course, the foreign ones too.

    fucking gnarl. im fucken mad like a bull B. peace.

    • Trollgasm

      FIX THESE file-sharing* policies

      *=its extremely relevant these days. o.O
