Facebook and it’s subsidiary apps (Instagram, Whatsapp, et al) have now been down for *hours*. It’s supposedly a DNS issue. But I think it’s the result of [insert conspiracy theory du jour].

USENET IS BACK, BABY!

DNS is vast arcane system. Has tentacles everywhere. Has deep historical
roots, is understood by few and run by an obscure, hidden elite group whose
members answer only to each other. Somehow DNS supplanted honest American
HOSTS.TXT by stealth. Letters 'DNS' in octal code are '104116123' or in
fact 10, 4, 1, 16, 12, 3: 'jda plc'. 'plc' means clearly both 'place' and
'police', will not state here obvious meaning of 'jda'.

You are correct: it is conspiracy: conspiracy is DNS. This surely is known
to all here. We must return to purity: to flatwound strings and honets
HOSTS,P,tXT files. Thi$'s -(###s only soluti9::*---,n. We 5/s5 FIGHT
