[EAS] GoDaddy down

[Alex Hartman]

So... is this the part where i tell you "I told you so?".

Probably 3-4 kids in their parents basement with a few hundred thousand zombie machines brought DNS and Registrar GoDaddy to it's knees for several hours today.

Now, imagine that attack on someone like Google, NetworkSolutions, or any other major DNS hosting company.

This is why FEMA and the FCC screwed the pooch when using a DNS based system that they have no control over.

But, what do we know, we only deal with it every day, god forbid we be right...
