Utopia Talk / Politics / FACEBOOK IS DOWN!!!

Average Ameriacn Member	Mon Oct 04 14:25:06 Is utopia forums down, too?
nhill Member	Mon Oct 04 14:38:03 No, we are the superior alternative to Facebook for crusty old millennials.
nhill Member	Mon Oct 04 14:43:44 But Facebook itself isn't down...it's just inaccessible. :) Someone messed up their BGP records. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Border_Gateway_Protocol Technically the site should still be online if you can figure out the IP address of its reverse proxy :D But there's probably domain validation through SSL that would fail. The world is gonna have to settle for utopiaforums.com for now!
Rugian Member	Mon Oct 04 14:44:26 I assume this is related to the "whistleblower" (Aka an unpleasant woman who was butthurt that Facebook wouldn't engage in more censorship of conservatives)
nhill Member	Mon Oct 04 14:46:24 All signs point to it being caused internally, although a hacker could masquerade as an internal employee. Perhaps a disgruntled employee, or someone being an idiot. The latter is more common.
