Have you actually read the article ? He explains everything in sufficient detail. He didn't "hijack" the DNS records, he bought the ones that were expired and available.

The only thing he doesn't explain (for obvious reasons) is the how he found the shells online (because as he puts it, they fell off the back of a truck).

Yes, but they did not touch that DNS specifically.
