DDOSes are illegal attacks due to the speed and scale of the automation.

If a website gets organically DOSed by Slashdot, that is not an illegal attack.

LLMs 'reading' a book is not the same as a human reading a book in the exact same way that following a very popular link is not participating in a DDOS

No, DDoS are illegal (and Slashdot effect is legal) due to intent. That is usually the most important distinction in criminal matters.
