Now they blame "wrong update of BGP protocol". https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/4/22709260/what-is-bgp-border-gateway-protocol-explainer-internet-facebook-outage

Remember cyber polygon scenario: malicious update done by hackers.
Why it is important ? In short it is worse than DNS because it is communication layer between internet subnets. And subnets are for example networks of our internet providers.It looks more critical than DNS as DNS are just changing numbers to domains,but BGP is about what way the messages will be sended.
If they would take control over BGP we can be in deep shit if they would like turn it down.
Migrations: probably steganography or other covert communication if they will leave only controlled servers.
Maybe also some anonymous networks,it depends how their routing works.
The exact way in which this unfolded also shows how it is very possible for the White Hats to use the exact same method - cut off BGP announcement, then bring it back up but point to entirely new DNS servers that redirects Facebook.com to a whole new IP range - and take full control of Facebook when the time is right.
I believe this was a test run by White Hats, following very similar strategy as outlined by the Black Hats
Yeah. Why would bad blackhats take down facebook when facebook is already the tool of the cabal.
And subnets are for example networks of our internet providers
I don't think you right about that, but it's too late for me to try and dispute.
I'll be honest...I got click baited cause I saw the word polygon and had no idea what you were talking about. Who's 'they'? Hackers? I had a thought...remember Putin just threatened to crush PedoZuck? And Russia is known for its hackers...maybe this was a left hook from Putin? Or maybe this was a white hat op?
This one is not about whose op it is,it is about reaction.
cover. other word is disguise.
If they have some hackers and they can still bite I would be REALLY afraid of internet coming down.
White hats clearly claim they know what is happening and possibly it might be sign done by white hats. Unfortunately if white hats would NOT established total control cabal can start with scenario from "cyber polygon" and pretend BGP protocol was "maliciously updated" by "hackers" and is controlled by "hackers". Consequence of that would be "justification" of applying/causing internet outage.
So: situation can be extremely dangerous now.
