Global Blackout, operation to try to "turn off the Internet"

According to a document Pastebin , apparently the group Anonymous has launched the Global Operation Blackout whose objective is to produce a blackout on the Internet on March 31 in protest against SOUP , WallStreet and our leaders irresponsible and corrupt bankers. How?

The idea is DDoS attack by the 13 root DNS servers in the world, which are those containing information on all other DNS servers looking to translate domain names into IP addresses. That is, if the information contained in those 13 servers were not accessible in any way, for example if a user tries to access www.google.com, I could not, your browser will send that name to a DNS server that will indicate what IP belongs so you can connect and serve the information, but would not answer and that in turn this would come to one of the root servers to find that information that would not get to be offside.

The second obvious question is how do you pull through DDoS servers ready to handle large amounts of traffic. Easy, use an application given the name of "Reflective DNS DDoS Amplification" that exploits a vulnerability in most name servers through which you can change the source IP address of the queried domain. Thus, the program will make requests to DNS servers with the falsified source IP address, instead of the true will of one of the 13 root servers, so that when a vulnerable DNS server responds, it sends packets to the root server receives causing many more requests than usual and end collapsing.

That's the theory, in practice the chances of such an attack to succeed are virtually nil. Although the program runs and increase traffic to achieve the root DNS servers, the architecture of these is very robust and most importantly, the IPs of the 13 root servers are backed up on servers all over the world. In short, we intend to throw a basic infrastructure for running Internet via distributed attacks, but it turns out that infrastructure is also distributed so the void.

And would not succeed, because honestly I think a quite absurd. Overall the experience tells us that the DDoS to little in 99% of cases, and one as the one proposed would indeed be quite a demonstration of the power of citizens, for example, politicians who are driven to trample rights regulatory frameworks and undermine the free nature of the network, or the unscrupulous bankers who are by making him a hard time to many people, but also would cause harm to completely innocent companies, associations of all kinds and millions of Internet users.
