McColo down

A great victory for all actors fighting cybercrime each day : the fraudulent hosting company McColo has been taken down.

While the whole anti-cybercrime community can be proud of it, is it really making things get better ?

Well it does...For two or three days. A week in the best case. Less spam, less malware, less childporn on the net... But the bad guys are moving. They're probably already somewhere else, pushing their malicious activities on the net once more.

The problem is only going somewhere else, nothing changes.

And while researchers are shutting things down, what are Law Enforcement dudes doing ? Blaming international laws. So silly...
