I’m thinking it’s mostly likely the Facebook owned
registrar is down because Facebook is down, rather than
the other way around.
I think the security breach idea is interesting, but I’d
be very curious where that intel came from.

their registrar is down as well - registrasafe.com
<http://registrasafe.com>, there were updates made for
both the registrar and the FB owned domains around 9am
central (14 something zulu), after which it all went dark
Their ASN shows up in the world
Many of their IPs hit facebook error pages
I have my money on the registrar taking the hit if this
was malicious
I also bought Keyon shares, so theres that

I can’t reach their DNS servers. I do have routes to
the networks their DNS servers are on, and tracert
stops in one of their /16’s.
Seems like their DNS is broken internally? This
seems absurd, but I’m not sure it’s any less absurd
than other theories.

that is insane. so the registrar being down or
"going out of business" is likely the cause?
who would have thunk...

the downdetector comments are awful
it looks like 9am CST some DNS registrar updates
were made. registrasafe.com
<http://registrasafe.com> seems to have
disappeared from the world.
Not sure what happens if your registrar that you
own disappears. ICANN isnt likely to just hand
keys over, even for facebook, its not like
theyre microsoft or anything

Machinery Trader got taken down by
ransomware too. Most likely a
coincidence. Wouldn’t that be rich if FB
got taken down by ransomware...
With as many datacenters they have, this
must be a CDN/router level attack,
wouldn’t you think?
