^^ I've wondered similarly - whether we've been seeing DNS attacks, for some reason. I am old; they are probably called something else now and probably have been for decades.
But, as you've noted, of all the places in cyberspace, why on earth mess with a bunch of Aspies? Fond as I am of this site and everyone on it (yes, I even care about people I disagree with - if I didn't care, I wouldn't bother to respond to them) we honestly couldn't organize our way out of a pay toilet as a group - if someone handed us the change!
We vary too widely even in our autisms, never mind the fact that we're all over the political and religious spectra too, to be a credible "bloc", marching in lockstep, anywhere. (Except maybe as autism activists, which would be kind of cool.)
Unless, of course, the troll (if there even is one, or more) is an Aspie themselves, or a friend or relation of one, and got royally p*ssed at someone here.
But still... playing Gollum with a bunch of Aspies just isn't that exciting a life, is it?
