It's also a bit of a misdirection to say that a DDOS (as I expected) is not a form of hack. Some attack vectors use DDOS as a means to discover other weaknesses and/or hide the real attack vector within the traffic load. We may never know if anyone got through unless they publish data.

I expect in this case though that it was a combination of legitimate load, plus disgruntled activists (probably Australians) that did most of the damage.
