Can you IT guys explain this to me?  I think it's kind of pretty, but that's all I get from it.

After looking at that with my limited IT knowledge, It's basically a categorization of detected Distributed-Denial-of-Service attacks.

a DDoS attack in the simplest terms is an overloading of outbound requests of one party by a another party that has either servers, a botnet or other means of generating the outbound requests distributed in an effort to mask, or increase the attack. All in an effort to deny service to the users of said resource, for whatever reason. Be it protesting, an intentional malicious attack, boredom, the challenge to see if it possible or legitimate testing.

China be chargin its lazors, holy shit.  

You'd think they wouldn't want to hinder us at every turn so they could collect all that damn money we owe them.  Denial of service attacks certainly don't make any one any cash besides the indigent child laborers that are chained to the computer desks there, I'm sure they get a shilling per day or whatever.

DDOS attacks are normally performed by botnets, not people actively doing something at multiple computers.

Most of the attacks coming into the US do not have a source, which can be typical of a DDOS attack.  That's the big funnel looking mess in the US.

How many chinese are using shitty pirated XP with no patches?  That would tend to make their computers bot fodder, without it being part of a malicious scheme.

Basically every dumbass with an unpatched Windows install, using IE6 while fapping to russian porn is unknowingly hosting bot services on his machine for the chicoms.
