Our commercial and non-profit sites are down, but our clinical patient portal is still up. Email is very slow.
Same here; website up, email nada
Mine too.
Is it just a coincidence that two out of two candidate sites where I tried to make donations today were “server not found”?
I believe we can count on more of this until election day.
I’m with WhosYourDaddy.com and it seems I still am.
I wonder if these are the same hackers that attacked Nachumlist before.
Yeah it’s just a coincidence.
I’m sure this is affecting candidates across the board if it’s a DNS attack aimed at a web hosting company.
Most campaigns are likely not tech savvy enough to know about or care about uptime availability or have back up web hosting. I would be amongst the first to declare this conspiratorial but it’s just a godaddy.com thing.
This is nothing more than aiming a shotgun at a big publicly known company that does what they do and pulling the trigger regardless of which web sites come down.
I am unable to retrieve my GD hosted email.
They weren’t fans of their superbowl ads?
BTTT
sorry for being too flippant about the scenario,, I hear ya on the economic impact, Sounds like thousands of sites affected, I bet they double triple check their procedures for maintaining network integrity in more after this .. when DNS crashes, Life is bad .
I used to do ‘mission critical’ support for callcenters .. when the calls don’t flow.. series kaching damage happens..
