(criminal) MediaDefender, MediaOffender, what's the difference...?

Hired gun blamed for business outage ( http://www.securityfocus.com/news/11521 )

First it was MediaSentry in the news for illegal investigations into piracy, now it's MediaDefender running a Denial of Service attack against a legitimate website that was hosting their own torrents.

Too bad it looks as if no one will get arrested for this due to some technicality of "knowingly" done or not. Anyone who thinks they did not "knowingly" do it probably also believes in the tooth fairy, but it's hard to prove it, so they get off scot-free.
