As for outcomes, I'm very much a bit player/spectator in this drama, nobody's going to be "taking them down" over DDOSing an obscure nerd blog.

If they do go down, it'll be the FBI or equivalent, and it will be publicly justified as some combination of "protecting the children" (cf. WAAD) and/or copyright violations.

Thanks, I must have missed this.

Yes, this is exactly what I fear. That we might be playing into the hands of the greater evil by escalating a small, personal conflict.
