Changes after the dyn dns outage
Looking at NS records today some of yesterdays affected companies decided to change things after
the DoS on Dyn. As the NS record is not really a customer facing feature
this is more an indication of Dyn's customers expectations. One could argue
switching away from Dyn could mean fear of more downtimes to come.
Here is a summary of changed NS records so far:
I did only check some NS records for changes, just several of the top sites.
There are two note-worthy non-changers being Twitter and Github though, everyone
else seems to have mitigated. Some to using two providers, several switching to
AWS DNS or UltraDNS exclusively.
