Editor's note: Twitter appears to be suffering outages for parts of the U.S., according to posts from many users on other social media sites. Approximately 20 minutes ago, WikiLeaks also posted on Facebook that it was "under a massive targeted DDoS attack." It's unclear if these are at all related. - Jillian End of note

At the same time, Wikileaks was also under attack. Both are back up now.

Clintons want social media out for the election.

I am still having troubles with the link.

Not Facebook. That’s how they prompt the mindless drones to vote so they can get a sticker on their feed.

Oh, I bet it’s the Russians. /S

Firefox (and it's clones) have an add-on called Geotool. I use it to copy IP addresses to a text file on my desktop.
Having an ISP with crappy DNS does come in handy. I've changed to OpenDNS in my router but old habits keep me adding to the file.

I doubt it. Twitter and especially Facebook going down for all of Election Day would be good for America. Hillary supporters are indifferent and need the prompting to get to the polls. Trump voters know the stakes in this election and will vote no matter what.
