No, *not* good. If *you* had a server that got compromised, and used to launch attacks on 500 sites, would you want to try to deal with 500 return strikes? Especially if the initial strike happens at 5:47PM on a Friday, and by the time you come in on Monday morning, you've been pwned by 197 different return strikes? Then the fun *really* starts when you call your national CERT and report you've been hit by an organized set of targeted attacks from 198 locations and hilarity ensues because your CERT can't contact 143 of them and verify it was a return strike. Definitely one of the sillier things I've heard Gadi say in a while...
