For example, ExoStresser was used to launch DDoS attacks against a major video game manufacturer, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleepingcomputer.com\/news\/security\/18-year-old-computer-genius-charged-with-launching-ddos-attacks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a Pennsylvania student<\/a> used BetaBooter to attack her school&#8217;s network, also bringing down the IT systems of 17 other organizations in a domino effect.<\/p>\n<p>Usatyuk&#8217;s DDoS-for-hire sites were so popular that he also sold advertising space in their backends to other DDoS booters.<\/p>\n<p>His criminal endeavors were also noticed by PayPal, which banned ExoStresser&#8217;s account in early 2016. This, in turn, made Usatyuk register irngur.org, which he used as an intermediary domain to receive funds made from renting the service.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, law enforcement agencies have been cracking down on major DDoS stresser services. Internationally-coordinated operations have taken place in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/teenage-ddos-users-targeted-by-international-law-enforcement-operation\/\" target=\"_blank\">December 2016<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleepingcomputer.com\/news\/security\/europol-shuts-down-worlds-largest-ddos-for-hire-service\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener

and more recently authorities have started going after both admins and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/police-are-now-targeting-former-webstresser-ddos-for-hire-users\/\"
