Follow-up on 🇬🇪Georgia vs Activitypub 🌐 :
I ran tests to see if it was just a local DNS failure in general. It doesn't seem to be.
Provider in question is 🇬🇪Silknet.
I put together two datasets of domains, one is top 1000 ActivityPub servers (according to fediverse.observer), second is just first 1000 entries from OONI Global list as the control group to represent the "rest of the Internet".
Resolved them one by one, alternating on sets, on Silknet nameservers, and Quad9 as "ground truth".
Out of 981 control group servers, successfully resolved by Quad9, 30 was not resolved by Silknet. This is roughly 3% and pretty much expected considering the contents of the OONI Global.
Out of 954 ActivityPub servers successfully resolved by Quad9, 456 was not resolved by Silknet.
About 48% (⁉) of top 1000 most active ActivityPub servers, effectively blocked right now.
There is a Python snippet of the tests I ran https:// gist.github.com/wafflecomposit e/81de26f9fa1fd16f33a7496c55fd637b

I don't see any disruption to the rest of the web, aside from the voice channels in discord (Which is also quite a big deal tbh).
Can't check the Magti (another main provider in 🇬🇪) right now, but I'm getting somewhat similar reports.
This is insane. What's going on?
Perhaps you may like to take a look
