This all seems to be a bit of a novelty to me and at least it is not a serious attack on the Litecoin camp, no data was taken. Yes, disabling a website malicious but overall I imagine this was carried out as a bit of a joke, although the motivations behind it could be quite worrying. Lee highlights that Bitcoin Cash supporters have tried to buy Litecoin fan materials previously, in an attempt to take over and ‘confuse’ people. Here, I believe Lee is accusing Bitcoin Cash supporters of trying to ‘confuse’ people into thinking Bitcoin Cash is superior, although I could be wrong. The problem I have here is that if this is correct, we may accuse Bitcoin Cash of trying to censor Litecoin instead of concentrating on their own promotion and development. By working together Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash may of course contribute to great things with regards to real blockchain adoption. At the moment though, petty challenges between their fan bases are certainly getting in the way of any unified progression taking place. Who knows what will come of this, could we see tensions escalate or could this all just be one big publicity stunt? Hopefully its the latter, we wouldn’t want anybody to fall out right?

It seems like that's their MO: Buy up websites and accounts to confuse people.
And yes, flappening is down. No one said this is going to be easy! Let's keep our focus on adoption. ? — Charlie Lee [LTC] (@SatoshiLite) April 25, 2018
