Was DU also inundated with Fake Russian bots and Fake news during elections?

As you all know Rachel Maddow described Putin's assault on the elections entailed fake bots and fake news, disseminated at an industrial level.

Was this a problem here? Is it still happening? What can be done about it? Was the DU election hacking ever solved?

Edit: What about Cambridge Analytica? They probably had a hand in this too.
