What if 'corruption' in this case meant 'tampering'?  Is it possible
that their routing tables were corrupted either by injection or
someone compromising a router and reconfiguring it?

It's been a few years since I last heard about route injection (at
DefCon, wasn't it?) so I don't know whether or not it's widely
possible, or at least plausible in the case of GoDaddy.
