"The reality is that this is just a normal criminal threat that sometimes crashes cell towers. SMS is an ancient technology that works slowly even in modern cell networks. Too many SIM boxes spamming SMS in one location can indeed overwhelm a cell tower" Are you agreeing with Cybersect or not?

Yes, I agree with the blog that this is quite obviously just run-of-the-mill criminality dressed up by the authorities and the NYT as some major cyber terrorism threat. I'm not sure what that quote has to do with anything I was saying, though.
