The code of hamurabi or ur-nammu? would probably? cut off your hand or
require the payment of several minas of silver.

The failure isn't one of the legal system not having the tools to
prosecute this sort of activity, it's the failure to effectively police
it. Other attractive nusances the cause economic damage such as graffiti
and antisocial behavior(of which much of this dos activity clearly is)
have been around longer than the code of ur-nammu and we haven't solved
them yet either.
