Around 2150 hours Comcast went completely down in south central Pennsylvania. No cable, dial tone, or internet.
After restoration a number of conservative news sites have become dns blocked, including:
World Net Daily
Townhall.com
The Federatlist
The National Herald
Surprisingly, DU is also down. Maybe the hacker's attempt at being "fair and balanced"
If everything “went down” it is due to a connection being broken, not a hack. If your sites are being blocked, that is probably on your end…not comcast.
You have seen that redundant systems require different pathways. Using comcast for phone, cellular and data means that your redundancy flows over the same teeny tiny little fiber optic thread.
If one is down…it is likely they are ALL down.
It’s funny…but it usually works.
That’s why I don’t use Comcast/Xfinity for cell phone.
I can access the Greek, OCA, and Serbian Orthodox websites.
So I can’t blame anyone for blocking them, can I?
Are they back now? Hope so.
OK; never mind!
