		<description>Qiuyue,

Good question.  What makes the Chinese seem more likely as the perps is fact that it is not a well known phenomenon in the West.</description>

		<description>Justin,

You are absolutely right and they seem to see those predictable mas behaviors very easily.  The real trick is for us to spot them at the same time and be on guard against them.

For example, there was a certain actress who recently had some pretty harsh words on why the earthquake in China occurred.  Now, if I was predicting THEIR mass behavior...every website that contains that person&#039;s name would be prepared to get hit.

Also, if I were them, there would be a lot of malware floating around on negative images of said person.  If the pattern of targeting their own people continues.  Kills two birds with one Stone (Whoops).</description>

		<description>Not cool, but effective.  Social conventions are weak spots, and these guys logically targeted a weak spot.

The real lesson here is that easily predictable mass behavoir is also easily exploited.</description>
