You don't actually need them to make up a large proportion for this effect to be visible. Consider a country of 1000 people, 999 of which have an IQ of 100 and the 1 remaining has an IQ of 99. The average is obviously just lower than 100, so a migrant coming to the country with an IQ of 100 will bring the average up. Obviously a contrived example but the principle certainly applies.
Anyway my guess is that this effect is probably due more to the proportion of Asian migrants that Australia receives than the proportion of Aboriginal natives it has.
Assuming it was a cyberattack, who are the most likely culprits? It feels more likely a nation state than a real independent (as in not a group that's nominally independent but isn't really) hacker group, right? I would assume a hacker group would have a list of demands and would probably have taken credit for it by now. But then what nation state would want to go for Spain/Portugal (they're not really big players in The Great Game of international intrigue are they?), particularly as they're both NATO members?
