Re: Heads-Up: GoDaddy Broke the Interwebs...

when patrick is referring to "taking their word for it", he's referring to
a post on outages@ by godaddy's network engineering manager that stated

i tend to align with patrick's thought. i'm also interested to see the
details, which they are really under no obligation to provide.
