It's reportedly BGP, and having null-routed most of Facebook IP address 
space, including their DNS servers, and their service status server.

As the DNS caches age out, there'll be no canonical server for Facebook 
DNS translations reachable.




I haven't been able to get to Eisner for a while, but haven't bothered 
to dig into the details.

$ dig +short eisner.decuserve.org
216.41.237.174
$ dig +short decuserve.org
184.168.131.241
$

ssh: connect to host eisner.decuserve.org port 22: Connection refused

Local ssh here is OpenSSH_8.1p1, LibreSSL 2.7.3.
