I find it funny that you chose Skype, which was pretty much the main source of players' IP last year. At least I can't think of any other. The players who got DDoS'd during the match against China had their skype names in their userpages.
We're not paranoid, we just feel it's better to be safe than sorry.
Just imagine losing the fruit of hard work being thrown away because of some anti-fans DDoSing your team. We were pretty close to experience something like that, it came down to last seconds when the fourth available player came back.
I'm kind of surprised Germany joined without questioning the medium, they got DDoS'd last year, too.
