The word "Krebs" in German translates to crab as well as cancer. They are donating to the charities that work against cancer and are commenting "Krebs ist scheiße" which would translate to "Cancer is shit" as well as "[Brian ]Krebs is shit".

But aren't they still, in essence, donating to charity to get back at Krebs?

I think it's more of a peaceful protest against his questionable journalism practices rather than getting back at him.

But yes.

Yes, that makes it so beautiful, IMO.

And since the server crashed, they donated to other charities, as well. DKMS saw many donations, as well.
