Of course they fucked it up, as evidenced by their bad security incident. The only question is whether you can really chalk this particular one up to a problem with "rolling your own crypto." That mantra exists for a reason, but it doesn’t feel like it really applies this time. It seems more like they used established crypto—just not the right one for this particular use case.
