Just a couple of quick corrections of the article for the benefit of 
readers:

"INTERNET security researchers have warned that hackers have caught on 
to a "critical" flaw that lets them control traffic on the internet."

Should read:

"INTERNET security researchers have warned that criminals have caught on 
to a "critical" flaw that lets them control traffic on the internet."

and,

"An elite squad of computer industry engineers that laboured in secret 
to solve the problem..."

Should read:

"Hackers that laboured in secret to solve the problem..."

Other than that, a good read.
