To accept the reality of disastrous facebook failure? I know.
Although you have no knowledge whatsoever about how
Facebook implemented their DNS
https://engineering.fb.com/2021/10/05/networking-traffic/outage-details/
our DNS servers disable those BGP advertisements if they
themselves can not speak to our data centers
The end result was that our DNS servers became unreachable
even though they were still operational.
means their DNS servers were serving the zone, even after
they recognize their zone data were too old, that is, expired.
you are obviously correct in all things.
If you think so, it's your problem, I'm afraid.
