Switching to googleDNS 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 bypasses the affected DNS servers and will resolve the simple URLs (no region in url). Still really surprised this isn't making bigger news yet.

Forgive my ignorance, but how does using Google's DNS get around Route53 not being able to resolve URLs? Does the default DNS just target Route53 DNS?

Tried that this morning and it solved the issue for me.

Thanks, this fixed my issues with my local dev environment.
