The word “hack” is pre-internet. A “hack” journalist or a “hack job” is basically something unprofessional. It is movies that turned “hackers” into someone that gained access to the “mainframe”. In the realm of computer systems, I would argue that a “hack” is doing anything the system was not intended/designed to do. A successful DoS or DDoS needs to find some component of the system that wasn’t designed to handle the amount of traffic about to be sent to it.

There are protections for DDoS (iptables, fail2ban, Cloudflare and so on), you have to figure out a way around them, that’s a hack.

My policy for the last 30 years has been; I shave for weddings and funerals. Worked well so far 👍
