The company that hosts the DNS service - translation of
www.google.co.ke
and other domain names to ip addresses e.g
http://74.125.28.94
- is the one that was compromised not google Kenya.
Here is a 'polished' version of what is happening:
Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn hacked in Kenyan DNS hijack
Live and learn; and don’t forget, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
