https://www.nextdc.com/storage/app/media/DataCenters/Melbourne_FacilityOverview.pdf?I'm a big holder in MAQ so this interests me, I bet MAQ and all the other DC's are watching very closely and checking their own systems as this is something that's not supposed to happen. Not a good look for NXT or them.
