Yes, but for some reason no one with the sort of thump needed seems to
care enough about fixing the problem or pressuring those that can to do
something about it. I would have thought that all the white noise would
have made (pick your favourite govt spy agency)'s job harder and they
would have done something about the problem by now.

Why didn't past DoS/amplification attacks make this problem get fixed?
