A Denial of Service attack is where hundreds of compromised PC's overload a server with requests; causing it to fail.

The same effect can be done by a MASS of humans, sitting at ONE computer each, overloading and overwhelming the abilities of other users to respond.

See it being tested now by Romneybots and TBM's. (yes; there is a overlapping of these terms. Probably in the high 90 percentages)
