The site is down, but the DNS server seems to be fine.

The DNS server is also super slow.

Hi this is Alex from GCA! Could you please run `dig +short @9.9.9.9 id.server TXT chaos` and post the results here? That will help us troubleshoot. Thanks!

Quad9 DNS is 10x (or worse!) slower then Google's for me (I'm in São Paulo, Brazil). Will this output help you troubleshoot DNS performance?

  $ dig +short @9.9.9.9 id.server TXT chaos

Thanks for this, we will see what we can do to run this down.

I wrote you an email to the address in your profile but got a failure notice:

  Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the following address.

  <CTO@globalcyberalliance.org>:
  550: 5.1.1 The email account that you tried to reach does not exist.

35ms for Google vs 230ms for Quad9 via LTE in Canberra, Australia. You really need an Australian PoP - I'd like to use the service!
