We cover a topic that sits next to real crime, so our standards are deliberately strict. These are the rules every article follows before it is published.
Our Standards
- Legal-only coverageWe explain how attacks and tools work for defense and authorized testing. We never publish instructions, code, or links intended to attack a target you do not own.
- SourcingClaims about laws, incidents, and enforcement are based on public statutes, court records, and published security research. Figures are presented as reported.
- IndependenceNo vendor can pay for placement, a review, or a ranking position. Commercial relationships, if any ever exist, would be disclosed on the page.
- Testing over opinionTool reviews reflect hands-on evaluation and documented criteria such as verification, protocol coverage, reporting, and compliance.
- CorrectionsWhen we get something wrong, we fix it and note material changes. Email the contact address with the article URL and the correction.
Why the Legal Framing Matters
The difference between a stresser and a booter is authorization. We hold that line in every article because it is both the law and the responsible way to cover the subject. If you spot content that crosses it, tell us and we will review it. See ourlegality guide for the underlying statutes.
