So far, we have received reports from Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Italy, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Norway, Romania, Spain, Sweden, and Turkey.

The reports look localized to Europe and parts of northwestern Middle East, but doesn't include the British Isles. This could be just network disruptions or routing issues between the European mainland and Dublin.

Why is @AnonymousOwn3r receiving press again? When he claimed to have "hacked" Godaddy, the source code he released was actually from some open source project.

Seems like irresponsible/sensationalist journalism to print his claim without anything to back it up.

That hacker is claiming to be attacking Facebook and bringing it down using a CSRF attack. Sounds like crap to me, it was probably just a problem with DNS or something.

There may be a CSRF attack, but probably completely unrelated: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19832043

I can confirm that Google, Facebook and some other websites are being wonky for the past two days now here in Bolivia. It's as if the DNS wiring is messed up.

Some websites load normally (fast) and Google, Facebook and others are just getting timeout errors on both Firefox and Chrome.
