not really most of the big operators are trusted members. more than likely some rogue gangs of thugs trying to make things crash... may even be china or the US. people are scared of things that are new and that they cant control. the fault is for any ddos attack to work it would have to take down a pretty large portion of the network as miners jyst switch back and forth from one pool to the other.

with stratum this is done much much quicker then the ddos retards can change there tiny stupid botnets over to ddos the new pool
and a few large pools sit behind cloudflare and it takes the website offline but leaves mining running.. really inconvenient not being ably to look at pretty website stats.
