and probably the most common on the internet, although it is mostly used just to down a website instead of a way to open a door to gain entry.

Its a money making technique, they threaten companies into paying, if they don't, they initiate a DoS attack and then their servers are offline, just like that, causing them to lose thousands if not more ...
 
I'd say making a threat for $ wouldn't get you anywhere with a company. If anything it would just end up getting you busted.
 
The reason DoS attacks have spiked is because of Windows. Everyone can thank Microsoft for including raw sockets for NO FREAKIN' REASON...
