Your right! perhaps DDOS does not mean any data have been compromise, it simply mean someone decide to piss you off.., and personally I prefer honesty, or more detail answer then "corrupted data" which is too easy.. let see what they going to say on that one..

I guess it's a internal leak.. I'm not good enough in programation to say if this is fake or real or publicly available, clearly there missing stuff.. like the DB :) perhaps for me it appear a bit more serious and making sense then the godaddy story about yesterday failure.

I'm not surprised Go-Daddy went in the direction of "internal network events that corrupted router data tables". It is definitely the lesser of the two evils. To come out and admit they were hacked or experienced a DDOS would make Customers feel their information on Go-Daddy servers was potentially compromised. Hence the CEO's statement, " At no time was any customer data at risk or were any of our systems compromised."

Unless there's a government investigation, which is doubtful, none of us will really ever know what truly happened.

Frankly, "we were ddos'd" is a much better sell than "we screwed up our internal systems horribly because we're idiots.". Surprised they went this direction.
