Anonymous has been trying to take down Amazon.com with a DDoS all day for refusing to continue to host space for Wikileaks. This would be quite a blow if it could be done, as it would shut off the flow of all that sweet Christmas shopping money. But because it is prepared for ridiculous amounts of traffic over the holidays, overloading it's servers is next to impossible.
In fact, the reason Wikileaks was being hosted by Amazon in the first place is that it has so much extra server space to handle the extra traffic that rents a lot of it out to other websites.
