Craigslist hack knocks web classified site offline: Who’s behind it?

The venerable web classifieds site, Craigslist, was knocked offline last and is still not loading for visitors. Local versions are redirecting for others.

Presumably unable to cope with the huge amount of traffic Craigslist itself receives, the Digital Gangster website itself is now inaccessible.
