Sure, cool that the FBI took down the #handala website. Yes, it makes a flashy headline, but is it really that newsworthy?

An info website is like a poster hanging on a wall. It is not a heavy lift to hang another one.

I get that it is hard to takedown a state actor APT group and wins are demanded by the victims and the press. But it really does not do anything to slow down the malicious activity (unless we are not being told the whole story).
