That was understood. The point I was attempting to make was a partial outage is better than a complete outage. Restoring web services would allow them to better communicate to their customers what was happening... instead of everything just vanishing from the internet. It appears they restored HTTP services now, so perhaps they ended up taking that route. Their homepage lists details of the ongoing attack/outage and their current efforts. This is what should have been done immediately, I'm afraid to say. Once the attack passes, they will then be in a better position to consider their options and negotiate with providers for long term solutions.
