More Glitches in the ATS Matrix

That doesn't make much sense, as that would alert the sites' administrators and it would be easy for the hosting companies to block any outgoing emails.

Also, if they only needed to send emails, why do all that? They could just send the emails from compromised sites without the admins know. In fact, it would be easier for the hackers to use compromised personal computers to send those emails.

No idea.  Disguise maybe?  Dunno.

The way I understood it was they were sending semi-questionable links and/or files from websites and/or domains which weren't typically blocked by most of the virus tracking apps.  It was a psychological thing, sort of like a twisted 'trust' game.  Sure, they could have just spoofed them, but it sounds like there was more to it than just that.  Beyond that, I don't know.

No proof of that anyway (with ATS), just a theory.  But that IS what happened with Sony, so I didn't dream it up.
