Title: All websites hosted by GoDaddy are currently unreachable
Post by: zappaDPJ on Sep 11, 2012, 00:21:15
As per the thread title, GoDaddy appears to have been taken down. I don't know any more details but this will effect literally millions of websites.

Seems they came up shortly afterwards, since one site I use, www.hobbyking.com, was back by 00.45 once new DNS entries propagated.

Someone will get shouted at for getting that wrong.

Caused by corrupt routing tables apparently.

Sounds like a reasonable explanation. The BBC are reporting the same: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19559128
