Hackers acting as if they're doing a public service by bringing down a free publicly accessible tool is a new level of assbackwardness.

are the zendesk hackers the same as the ones who brought down the website initially?

No. And it's hard to call the zendesk one a hack, even. They just used the same credentials that were leaked a couple weeks before.
