independent hit

On trying to reach the website of the Independent newspaper today (the Grauniad is trying my patience of late), I received the following response:

Screenshot-www.independent.co.uk - Chromium

Closing the popup takes you to this page:

Screenshot-Hacked by SEA - Chromium

I haven’t checked whether this is simply a DNS redirect or an actual compromise of the Indy site, but however the graffiti was added, it indicates that the Indy has a problem.
