Anonymous is claiming responsibility: http://twitter.com/AnonOpsLegion/status/245218636187443200

FWIW, godaddy's dns is different than what is used for godaddy's customers.

Godaddy's dns:

Name Server: CNS1.SECURESERVER.NET

   Name Server: CNS2.SECURESERVER.NET

   Name Server: CNS3.SECURESERVER.NET

A typical customer of godaddy's dns servers:

Name Server: NS07.DOMAINCONTROL.COM

   Name Server: NS08.DOMAINCONTROL.COM

They claim responsibility for everything now, though.

There's a 'declaration of war' at least once a week with these guys. So who knows what they actually do, if anything.

And by "these guys," it's most commonly anyone with an internet connection and a bone to pick. Saw some ridiculous attempt the other day to brand an attack on 9GAG with the anon logo.

It's an 'interesting[1]' and.. 'silly[2]' narrative.

Interesting. It looks like either Anon has changed their objectives, or someone is trying really hard to make them look bad.

I'm reminded of the Romney records[1] and more recently the Apple device IDs[2] stories.
