[outages] EasyDNS DDoS

[Scott, Robert D.]

Jan  8 03:28:05 cse209-fwsm-cns-v1202-1 %FWSM-2-106007: Deny inbound UDP from 72.52.2.1/53 to 128.227.254.102/51281 due to DNS Response    
Jan  8 03:27:37 cse209-fwsm-cns-v1202-1 %FWSM-2-106007: Deny inbound UDP from 72.52.2.1/53 to 128.227.254.102/2956 due to DNS Response     

I have been seeing unsolicited DNS replies from them since Jan 8th about 16:36 EST.  I also started seeing them from:
robert at Robert ~
$ dig +short -x 67.228.254.4
ns1.softlayer.com.

at about the same time, so I suspect they are/were also getting slammed.
