FWIW

Yahoo has been taken down by TFN / Stacheldracht ...
NASA, FBI etc have been hacked and defaced multiple times
AOL servers ~have~ been crashed by various malicious users

VSNL is not alone in this respect.  Plus they have a new policy now -
router blocking open relay servers which broadcast spam / spamming
websites (when a server owner sends out spam promoting his site).
