I saw the same thing with Netflix (IPv6 side). signup.netflix.com (east and west) were inaccessible starting at 3:52 pm (U.S. Central), and www.latency.prodaa.netflix.com <http://www.latency.prodaa.netflix.com> , www.netflix.com (east and west) at 3:57 pm, but all came back up at ~4:40 pm. But I see both signup.netflix.com down again now.

We're getting conflicting stories, it seems. The responses from their support indicated a DDoS, while in this NYT article, http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/16/technology/ultradns-server-problem-pulls-d..., their CIO is saying it was a server error. This outage comes a day after this: https://www.neustar.biz/blog/neustar-recognized-as-top-5-ddos-protection-ven... I'm skeptical about the "server issue".

I just got this: "The Neustar UltraDNS service is currently experiencing DDoS traffic in the U.S. East Region. The Security Operations Team is currently working on mitigating attack traffic and further updates will be provided as soon as possible." Cheers, Steve
