I have suddenly noticed my link to DRUDGE takes me to a Vonage sign in page. No matter how I attempt to get to the Drudge site it takes me to the same Vonage page which asks me for my name and password. I do use Vonage but how could that have anyhting to do with a total inability to get to the Drudge site?
Even if I type in DRUDGE in the search bar and go to the page of links, no matter which link to Drudge I use I go to the Vonage page. How is this possible and is anyone else having this problem?
There were Internet-wide DNS attacks trying to exploit some freshly discovered vulnerabilities. DNS is what translates a name - drudgereport.com - into a set of numbers of the IP address. The purpose was to redirect people to some “bad guys” sites that mimic normal sites to steal personal info.
Not much you as just a user can do besides being always watchful.
If you know how to do it, put a top level DNS as your DNS server 4.2.2.1 or 4.2.2.2
