I know one group with DNS by GoDaddy but hosting elsewhere has been
affected. All machines are still reachable via IP address, of course.
Speaking of which, anyone know if GoDaddy hosted sites can be reached by IP?

Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases:
If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops
moving, subsidize it.
– *Ronald Reagan (1986)
