The thought of "just how much power would it take to ddos Google" passed through my mind
Obviously this is a large scale thing but it makes me wonder what kind of shit google is ready for
Anyone on /g/ have an estimate for this?

Google has over a billion users. I think it's safe to assume they have the resources to handle twice as many. You're not going to successfully carry out a denial of service attach against them unless you have control of at least a billion machines, and even then you'd probably slow down a couple services causing a minor inconvenience at best.
You would likely have better luck storming their server farms and blowing them up with semtex than trying any kind of digital attack.
you'd probably do more damage to them physically going after the servers they host their DNS on

Let me know when you are free OP.
I need to buy a baseball bat
I think google's servers are enough to ddos the entire consumer PC market
When you talk about DDoS'ing something as big as Google, they aren't one datacenter, IP range, entity, etc. It would need to be extremely coordinated on multiple systems. Even then, they have active network and sysadmins that will be fighting you every step of the way and fucking up any sort of coordination/plan you had to begin with. Truth is they have more resources then the attackers would ever have.
