<div>correct me if I am wrong, but Dos attacks would require quite a bit of bandwidth, and usually follow some very distinct modus operandi. probably noticeable by the tor client. Is there a way to build some kind of Dos and DDos protection into the tor network or maybe even the client. if only to keep it from being abused in this fashion?

Subject: Slashdot banning Tor?
I've been seeing this message when I try to login to <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://slashdot.org/" target="_blank">slashdot.org</a>:
"This IP address or network has been used to abuse the system
and logins
from it have been disabled. If you feel that this is unwarranted, feel
free to include your IP address (<a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://194.25.9.105/" target="_blank">194.25.9.105</a>) in the subject of an
email to <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="mailto:banned@slashdot.org" target="_blank">banned@slashdot.org</a>, and we will examine why there
is a ban. If
you fail to include the IP address (again, in the subject!), then your
message will be deleted and ignored. I mean come on, we're good, we're
not psychic."
I get the same message when I go through other exit nodes too. Anyone
else seeing this? Has anyone tried contacting them?
