My point about it being general outage referred to the fact that many users
could not get answer from route53, even if they directly contacted aws
without involvement of Google.

DNS during the outage:

DNS now: https://pulse.turbobytes.com/results/5adf2a6becbe40692e003aee/

MTR during the outage:

MTR now: https://pulse.turbobytes.com/results/5adf2a60ecbe40692e003aec/

instagram.com simply had the unfortunate misfortune of having all their
assigned nameservers in the block Joseph mentioned, and perhaps Google
using HE upstream. The domain I included in the results above was lucky to
have 2 nameservers (205.251.194.143 and 205.251.196.84) not included in the
above list.
