- doki_pen 14y agohow was it done?
- doki_pen 14y ago$whois google.com shows similar results, I think this has nothing to do with the downtime, or I'm missing something.
- lomendil 14y agoIf this is about weird/vulgar statements with FACEBOOK.COM in the name, they exist for just about every big domain. Whois queries return results for subdomain matches.

- codewright 14y agoCould someone share what we're supposed to be seeing? I find it really irritating when people post potentially time-sensitive stuff that can disappear without caching/inlining the expected result.
- sheraz 14y agook, I'll bite. This is the output from my MacBook pro on the command line: $ whois facebook.com Whois Server Version 2.0 Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net for detailed information. FACEBOOK.COM.ZZZZZ.GET.LAID.AT.WWW.SWINGINGCOMMUNITY.COM FACEBOOK.COM.MORE.INFO.AT.WWW.BEYONDWHOIS.COM FACEBOOK.COM.LOVED.BY.WWW.SHQIPHOST.COM FACEBOOK.COM.KNOWS.THAT.THE.BEST.WEB.HOSTING.IS.NASHHOST.NET FACEBOOK.COM.GET.ONE.MILLION.DOLLARS.AT.WWW.UNIMUNDI.COM FACEBOOK.COM ...generic legal mumbo-jumbo.... looks like someone is having fun with whois entry hacking/cracking
- codewright 14y agoSomething is proxying my whois queries, I don't see any of this and instead get Facebook's Markmonitor result.

- 7beersonthewall 14y agoThis is old. You can see this on most big company whois lookups. It is just subdomains that show up since whois just pulls everything with the domain name in it.
- AdamGibbins 14y agoThis is normal. whois does partial searches by default, run whois 'domain facebook.com' for an exact match.
