I am very curious what it was that took 6 hours to figure out or undo.

 

…..but I wouldn’t judge too harshly.  When any contraption gets big and complex 
it’s easy to overlook one seemingly small thing.

 

Remember this XKCD?

so it turns out FB murdered the announcements for the DNS server prefixes, 
including the registrar.

This really seems like an elementary design flaw. Even a moron like me knows 
not to poke the DNS subnets all at once, and we probably get way less than 1k 
daily lookups across all the domains we host DNS for. Ill bet nobody involved 
in this makes less than 80k a year. facebook lost 4% stock value today 
attributed to this on top of the almost percent attributed to the 
"whistleblower". I get nervous when I lose the company a number 10 wrench.
