I'm starting with whoever wrote the headline here.

Gov.uk site did not break google analytics. This is standard click-bait / shock value type headlines.

Well, it actually broke Google Analytics Realtime, since basically the report stopped working.

False - they may just be using the FREE version for "individual or small businesses". This has limits.

Google will stop analytics if you are on just the free account and start going over their free limits. This does not mean google analytics has broken.

Is gov.uk an "individual or small business"? Or are they paying for 360?

As I said, the report broke. Stop. As the headline says. And yes you're right that they "may be just using the FREE version", but it's a "may be".

It was a tweet written by the engineer working on their server.

No clickbait, not journalism. Just people sharing their experience, and a HN submitter who got noverexcited.
