Been following this...  Their DNS servers are impacted.  Hosting servers
indeterminate.  Claims are made that #Anonymous3 down in Brazil is
behind this for one reason or another but no one else from Anonymous has
stepped up to the plate and claimed responsibility.  Looks to be a loose
cannon with a wild hair at this point...

If you are using them as a registrar but are managing your own DNS then
you do not seem to be impacted at this time.

If you are using their DNS servers then you are probably impacted
whether you are hosting with them or not.

If you are using their hosting services but managing your own DNS,
please let us know.  I have no data points on this curve.
