Participating in DDoS attacks is illegal in most jurisdictions. Attackers can face severe legal consequences, including substantial fines, imprisonment (e.g., under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act in the US), and civil lawsuits from affected companies for damages. Law enforcement agencies worldwide actively pursue and prosecute individuals involved in such cybercrimes.
