Reddit is down. Other sites work. Continuation of the giant DDOS attack on DNS servers from yesterday, perhaps?

seems like it http://downdetector.com/status/reddit

Yeah, a bunch of sites just stopped working about 40 minutes ago. At the very least Reddit, Imgur, and Stackoverflow. It seemed too big of a coincidence given the recent DNS attacks over the past few weeks, and Bruce's recent statements about it.

It's up here (UK)

Thanks! It's back up for me now as well. Hopefully we're not starting another attack.

As a side note, I seem to be getting 503'd from Fastly's CDN a lot today.
