Editing Lorikazz

'''Lorikazz''' was a Kaboom player who frequently spambotted and [[DDoS]]ed both [[Kaboom]] and [[kaboom.chipmunk.land]], usually in direct retaliation to very mild trolling from community members. He was active from 2024 to 2025.

He is a big fan of Twokinds, with his background being set to Twokinds-related content. At one point, he set his Discord status to something related to dating [https://twokinds.fandom.com/wiki/Flora Flora], but the exact details have been lost to time. Despite all this, he insisted that he is not a furry.

==Botnet==

It has been confirmed by security researchers that Lorikazz operated a botnet of compromised Android TV boxes<ref>https://github.com/PaloAltoNetworks/Unit42-timely-threat-intel/blob/main/2026-04-13-LORIKAZZ-ANDROID-IOT.txt</ref>, with a codebase skidded from the [https://krebsonsecurity.com/?s=aisuru Aisuru botnet].

However, this conflicts with claims he made in the [[ChomeNS Bot]] Discord server about his botnet being comprised of bruteforced SSH servers<ref>https://discord.com/channels/1294541759338254386/1297713416936489053/1405854325540126823</ref>. The factual accuracy of this claim is dubious as he then goes on to claim that he has contact with the CEO of Hetzner, [https://www.forbes.com/profile/martin-hetzner/ Martin Hetzner] and is in some sort of deal where Mr. Hetzner provides servers for his botnet.

Other sources say that his botnet was actually comprised of compromised routers<sup>[''citation needed'']</sup>.

It is likely that his botnet was a mix of the three device types, with routers and other IoT devices being the most prevalent and compromised servers the least prevalent. It's also possible that he had separate botnets at separate time.

For the context of Kaboom, he operated the "Stormstress" botnet which he used to DDoS Kaboom clones.

===Disappearance===

Sometime before September 2025, stormstress.cc ceased to operate and the Telegram channel was removed. The Telegram channel was taken over by an unknown individual, and some Kaboom-related messages were posted to it.
