    In my understanding they were hacked, and the hacker installed a software on the crfriends-server to DoS-Attack a unknown different server.

    Well, it’s “nice” to know they weren’t the “target”, just the “means” of the attack, but this still sucks. There are always a few people intent on ruining things for everyone else. I am glad they are back online.
