What happened that day?
Why didn't the hacker/s want us to compare notes IRT?
Should we tell the FBI (or other CI) what happened here?

I've never believed DU was not professionally hacked in the first place, either by Russia or a professional criminal operation set up by those using the Republicans to gain power.
The largest social media site for Democrats is taken down on election eve? Uhuh. We may not be a big player, but DU is clearly an item to be dealt with on probably more than one enemy's list.
Fwiw, we have nothing not known to alert or tell. If DU's administrators ever want to tell us, they know where to find us.
