Re: More federal management of key components of the Internet needed

["Jeff Shultz" <jeffshul () wvi com>]

I saw in a forum on ExtremeTech (where they had an article ranting
about how the internet was almost brought to it's
knees)http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,3973,646157,00.asp that
after the root servers attack the gTLD's were attacked as well, taking
out .biz, .info, and .gov ... can anyone verify if anything happened?
