Can a 'free' DDoS tool be used to launch a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack without technical expertise?

While some 'free' tools might have a relatively simple interface, launching a successful DDoS attack still requires some technical knowledge. Understanding networking concepts, configuring the tool correctly, and potentially bypassing security measures are often necessary. However, the ease of use of some tools could enable individuals with limited technical skills to initiate attacks, making them a significant threat.
