[outages] Larger problems caused by Facebook DNS outage?

[Sebastian Wiesinger]

I've received reports from multiple endusers that can't "access the
internet" with their Huawei mobile phones when connecting to a
wireless network.

It seems Google had problems with their 8.8.8.8 service earlier as
well caused by all the people trying to resolve facebook.com etc. I
think that this might be a problem for Android gear doing connectivity
tests over 8.8.8.8 after connecting to a new wireless network.

Can anyone corroborate this?

Best Regards
Sebastian
